Comment on Crozier Resignation
Townshend comments that Crozier had acted precipitately and that most of the Auxiliaries dismissed by Crozier were not found guilty at the subsequent court-martial and that of the eight Auxiliaries found guilty, four had not being suspected by Crozier. Townshend goes onto comment that, as the court-martials did not take place until July and therefore lacked deterrent effect, "Tudor could … have employed some of Crozier's dispatch."
