75th (Stirlingshire) Regiment of Foot

[5] It went on to fight at the Battle of Seedaseer in March 1799 and formed part of the storming party at the siege of Seringapatam in April 1799 during the Fourth Anglo-Mysore War.

[8] It then returned home in August 1806 and then lost its Highland status due to recruiting difficulties, becoming the 75th Regiment of Foot in April 1809.

[9] Internal dissensions in the Sicilian government and an ever-increasing suspicion that Queen Maria Carolina was aiming to have the French reinstate her in Sicily had led to Lord William Bentinck's appointment as British representative to the Court of Palermo in July 1811.

The constitution set up the separation of the legislative and executive powers and abolished the feudalistic practices that had been established and recognised for the past 700 years.

[14] The regiment, as part of the first storming column, led a bayonet charge at the siege of Delhi in June 1857 during efforts to suppress the Indian Rebellion.
