IF 514i'L1- Ing IN A 4000 7ilzirlc21r r- a11U1 4, r, t 9 c A 12th Lapeer TredltIon, Tho 12th Lancers observed until 1L4 a quaint regimental etistoia which was said to ]lave its origin in the Pen,.insular war, According to regimental tradition, certain inelahbors of the loth found themselves, after au engagement with the French, detached from the main body, and, there being no officer with theta, they decided to go a -looting. Unfortunately for 'them and for the high, reputation of the regiment, the first buiiding they game to was a con. vent, l-iow mutih looting they did is unrecorded; but when their offence was discovered, not only were they condemned to be shot, but the whole regiment was (sentenced to have hymn tunes played to it every night for 100 years:. �� This custom was contihfued until the outbreak of war, and; although the al- leged Sentence oxpiroll some years ago, it will be revived as soon as the 12th once more got to tlieii' peace footing, Evidently, whatever stigma original- ly attached to the regiment on co- count.of_tlie Ponineular incident has long been forgotten in the splendid' acfnievements of the 12th in almost every war cavalry have been engaged he since, and the custom is regarded now -a -days as an honor rather than a punishment, This 1s a good example of the way in which regular regiments cling on to their old traditions and customs, no matter what may be the origin of the latter.
