In the narratives of this battle published at the time, the heroic conduct of the corps engaged is highly commended. The THIRTEENTH foot had Lieutenant Haddock and forty rank and file killed; Captain Stafford, Lieutenant Naylor, Ensign Holyday, five serjeants, two drummers, and seventy rank and file wounded; fifty-one non-commissioned officers and soldiers prisoners of war and missing. The regiment was employed near the frontiers of the United Provinces during the remainder of the campaign, but it was not again engaged in combat with the enemy. [Sidenote: 1748] A fine body of recruits from England replaced the losses of the preceding year, and in the spring of 1748, the regiment again took the field, and was employed in several services in the province of Limburg and in North Brabant. Preliminary articles for a treaty of peace were afterwards agreed upon, a suspension of hostilities took place, and the regiment went into quarters in Holland. A treaty of peace, concluded at Aix-la-Chapelle, terminated the contest, and during the winter the regiment returned to England. [Sidenote: 1749] In 1749 a reduction was made in the strength of the army, and the THIRTEENTH regiment was placed on a peace establishment. [Sidenote: 1751] On the 1st of July, 1751, King George II. issued a regulation relative to the clothing, standards, and colours of the several regiments. According to this regulation, the uniform of the THIRTEENTH regiment was scarlet, faced and lined with _philemot yellow_. The first, or King’s, colour was the great union; the second colour was of philemot yellow silk, with the union in the upper canton, and in the centre of the colour, XIII. in gold Roman characters, within a wreath of roses and thistles on the same stalk. [Sidenote: 1754] [Sidenote: 1762] The regiment remained in Great Britain until the year 1754, when it embarked for Gibraltar; and was stationed at that fortress during the whole of the seven years’ war; at the termination of hostilities in 1762, it returned to England. [Sidenote: 1766] King George III. paid great attention to everything connected with the army, and the THIRTEENTH foot obtained His Majesty’s special approbation of their conduct on all occasions. In June, 1766, His Royal Highness William, DUKE OF GLOUCESTER, was appointed colonel of the regiment, in succession to General the Honorable Henry Pulteney, who resigned. [Sidenote: 1767] His Majesty reviewed the regiment in Hyde Park, in brigade with the twelfth foot, on the 5th of June, 1767: the Queen, and a numerous assemblage of distinguished persons, were present on this occasion; and the King was pleased to express his high approbation of the appearance and discipline of the two corps.
