"AFTER BRIGADE ORDERS. "His Excellency Major-General Sir Lewis Grant cannot allow the head-quarters of the ROYAL Regiment to quit Trinidad without expressing to Lieut.-Colonel Carter, and the officers, non-commissioned officers, and men of the regiment, the very great satisfaction their general conduct, both as officers and men, has afforded him since his landing at Trinidad. "The decorous conduct of the corps, and the perfect manner in which its duties have been performed, entitle it to the greatest praise. For this His Excellency returns to Lieut.-Colonel Carter his particular thanks, and requests he will make a communication to the same effect to the officers and others under his command. "His Excellency assures the officers and men of the ROYAL REGIMENT that they carry with them his best wishes for their welfare." [Sidenote: 1833] On the 26th of October, 1833, the _reserve_ companies of the 1st battalion embarked from Glasgow for Ireland, and landed at Londonderry on the 28th of that month. [Sidenote: 2nd Batt.] In December of the same year the second battalion embarked from Glasgow, and, having landed at Belfast, was stationed in Ireland two years and a half. [Sidenote: 1834] His Grace the Duke of Gordon was removed in December, 1834, to the Third, or Scots Fusilier Regiment of Foot Guards; and the Colonelcy of the ROYAL Regiment was conferred by His Majesty King William IV., on General Thomas Lord Lynedoch, G.C.B., from the 14th Regiment of Foot. [Sidenote: 1835] [Sidenote: 1st Batt.] The six _service_ companies of the 1st battalion quitted the West Indies in December, 1835, and proceeded to Ireland, where they arrived in the early part of 1836; and, having joined the _reserve_ companies, the battalion remained in that part of the United Kingdom upwards of two years. [Sidenote: 1836] [Sidenote: 2nd Batt.] During the summer of 1836, the 2nd battalion was divided into six _service_ and four _depôt_ companies; and in July the _service_ companies embarked at Cork for Canada, leaving the depôt companies at Boyle, from whence they were removed in the succeeding year to Newbridge.
