Contradictory Label

I do not know enough about the subject of this article to correct this issue. It appears that this part of the section is contradictory:

"With his small army, Murray defeated Marshal Louis Suchet at the Battle of Castalla on April 13, 1813. Though Suchet was outnumbered two-to-one and the battle was largely won by the British infantry,"

How can Murray's "small army" manage to outnumber Suchet's?

Antelope In Search Of Truth ( talk)

Murray commanded 18,000 men while Suchet had about 8,000. Technically, Suchet commanded a corps of two small divisions. Suchet very aggressively attacked Murray and was driven off with heavy losses. (I plan to write a Castalla article soon.) There are a few things in this article I'm not happy with. I'll try to make it more clear. Djmaschek ( talk) 04:06, 5 January 2008 (UTC) reply

It's fixed now and I took the liberty of removing the contradict tag. BTW: I changed court-marshalled to court-martialed. Either one or two Ls are correct according to the American Heritage dictionary. Djmaschek ( talk) 04:41, 5 January 2008 (UTC) reply
