Transcription On the 25th and 26th September the
Regiment was inspected by Major General Wardlaw, C.B
and Lieut. Col. Godman had great pleasure in informing
the Regiment that the Major General had expressed him-
self highly pleased with the appearance of both the men
and horses and perfectly satisfied with the riding and
efficiency of the men in the Field and the discipline in
quarters, the Major General remarked particularly upon
the manner in which the Tymnastic exercises were
carried out which reflected great credit on Serjeant
Major Ducie and his assistants, he was also especially
pleased with the Sketches and Reports executed by the
Non Commissioned Officers and men who had attended
the voluntary sketching class which had been most
satisfactorily conducted by Lieut. J. O. Lambert and
he would not fail to note it in his Report to
Head Quarters.
The Lieut Col. hoped that Non Com.-
missioned Officers and men would take advantage
of the winter season to perfect themselves in the duties
of reconnaissance, and thanked all ranks for the
assistance they had rendered him in maintaining
the efficiency of the Regiment.
