[29] When Lieut.-General Sir Rowland Hill was created a Peer in May 1814, his title was connected with the gallant affair above recorded, as he was styled Baron Hill of Almaraz, and of Hawkstone, in the county of Salop. [30] The officers of the SEVENTY-FIRST regiment, to mark their admiration and esteem for this distinguished officer, had a monument erected to his memory. [31] A list of the British and Hanoverian army at Waterloo, as formed in divisions and brigades, is inserted in the _Appendix_, page 166. [32] Colonel the Honorable Henry Cadogan, who was mortally wounded at Vittoria on the 21st of June 1813.--_Vide page 94._ [33] During the period the SEVENTY-FIRST were stationed at York, they had the satisfaction of removing to consecrated ground the mortal remains of the brave grenadiers of the eighth regiment, who fell upon the 27th of April, 1813, in action with the Americans. These gallant soldiers had fallen, and were buried at a considerable distance from the shores of Lake Ontario; but as its waters had since encroached upon the land in this direction, they at length succeeded in breaking open their honorable grave, and the beach became strewed with their remains. This coming to the knowledge of the SEVENTY-FIRST, they had them removed to the military burying ground in the vicinity of the garrison. SUCCESSION OF COLONELS OF THE SEVENTY-FIRST REGIMENT, HIGHLAND LIGHT INFANTRY. JOHN LORD MACLEOD, _Appointed 19th December 1777_. Lord John Macleod was the eldest son of the Earl of Cromartie, and, with his father, was engaged in the attempt made in 1745 by Prince Charles Edward, the young pretender, to recover the throne of his ancestors. After the battle of Culloden, in 1746, the Earl of Cromartie was brought to trial, and pleaded guilty; but his life was spared on consideration of the remorse expressed by him for having been seduced in an unguarded moment from that loyalty which he had always, previously to the breaking out of the rebellion, evinced to the existing establishment, both in Church and State. Lord Macleod also received the royal mercy on account of his youth, and his regard for his parent, which had been the cause of his being concerned in the rebellion. The young lord also promised, that, should the royal clemency be extended to him, that his future life and fortune should be entirely devoted to His Majesty’s service, which promise was amply fulfilled in after years. Lord Macleod subsequently entered into the Swedish army, where he served for several years with great reputation, and was made a Commandant of the Order of the Sword in the kingdom of Sweden. While the American war of independence was being carried on, his Lordship returned to Great Britain, and in December 1777 received authority to raise a regiment of Highlanders, which was, on its formation, numbered the seventy-third, and subsequently the SEVENTY-FIRST regiment, under the circumstances detailed in the Historical Record.
