Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Regiments in South Africa, 1899-1902 The Scottish Horse, practically a portion of the second lot, is a brilliant example of what could be done by training and a careful selection of oficers. They got good opportunities, they paid the price for their glory ungrudgingly, and it is beyond doubt that many other battalions of the Imperial Yeomanry would have willingly done the same. Lord Kitchener's reference to the Met company (one of the 23rd Battalion, Sharp shooters, also of the second lot which sacrificed itself almost to a man for Damant'e guns, should always be proudly remembered by Englishmen, especially by those who are interested in the problem Can a civil ian rapidly become a useful soldier The reference answers the question.

THE ROYAL SCOTS (LOTHIAN REGIMENT). The 1st Battalion Royal Scots sailed as corps troops, and when Sir William F.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Colonials in South Africa, 1899-1902: Their Record, Based on the Despatches When the Author published his Our Regiments in South Africa, 1899 which gave a brief account of the work, in the war, of each regular battalion of infantry, regiment Of cavalry, and battery Of artillery, he remarked in the Preface that Some account of the doings of the Colonials should, and may yet, be put together.
