Military historian Charles Dalton recorded that, after a hard-fought battle in Spain, a young officer made the comment, "I am going to dine with Wellington tonight", which was overheard by the Duke as he rode by. "Give me at least the prefix of Mr. before my name," Wellington said. "My Lord," replied the officer, "we do not speak of Mr. Caesar or Mr. Alexander, so why should I speak of Mr. Wellington?" [226]The Earl of Winchilsea accused the Duke of "an insidious design for the infringement of our liberties and the introduction of Popery into every department of the State". [178] Wellington responded by immediately challenging Winchilsea to a duel. On 21 March 1829, Wellington and Winchilsea met on Battersea fields. When the time came to fire, the Duke took aim and Winchilsea kept his arm down. The Duke fired wide to the right. Accounts differ as to whether he missed on purpose, an act known in duelling as a delope. Wellington claimed he did. However, he was noted for his poor aim and reports more sympathetic to Winchilsea claimed he had aimed to kill. Winchilsea discharged his pistol into the air, a plan he and his second had almost certainly decided upon before the duel. [179] Honour was saved and Winchilsea wrote Wellington an apology. [178] [180] Most of the book A Biographical Sketch of the Military and Political Career of the Late Duke of Wellington by Weymouth newspaper proprietor Joseph Drew is a detailed contemporary account of his death, lying in state and funeral. [215] Wellesley (2008), p.16 "Anne Mornington insisted that she remembered the details: 1 May 1769, at 6 Merrion Street, Dublin – an elegant new townhouse round the corner from St Stephen's Green, the largest public square in Europe." This number shows the air temperature for the time period. You can see the temperature in Celsius or In popular ballads of the day Wellington was called "Nosey" or "Old Nosey". [240] More complimentary sobriquets, including "The Beau" and "Beau Douro", referenced his noted dress sense. [241] Spanish troops called him "The Eagle", while Portuguese troops called him " Douro Douro" after his river crossing at Oporto in 1809. [242]

With a latitude of 41° 17' South, Wellington is the southernmost capital city in the world. [52] Wellington ties with Canberra, Australia, as the most remote capital city, 2,326km (1,445mi) apart from each other.Hofschröer, Peter (1999). 1815: The Waterloo Campaign: The German Victory. Greenhill Books. ISBN 978-1853673689. Given independent command of a combined East India Company and British Army force, [68] Wellesley ventured north to confront Waugh in June 1800, with an army of 8,000 infantry and cavalry, having learnt that Waugh's forces numbered over 50,000, although the majority (around 30,000) were irregular light cavalry and unlikely to pose a serious threat to British infantry and artillery.
