India 1874-1884The 13th appear to have learned a hard lesson after the suffering and death of horses on the voyage out to Canada in 1866, so that when they were ordered to sail to India in Dec 1873 they handed over their horses to the 21st Hussars who had just returned from India. They sailed on 8th Jan 1874 and arrived in Bombay on 12th Feb. The regiment was commanded by John Miller and had a strength of 450 all ranks. They went by train to Lucknow and were given the horses that the 21st Hussars had left in India. The regiment were not in action for most of their time in India. They were inspected by the Prince of Wales on 12th Jan 1876, and other inspections by General officers produced highly complimentary reports. On the occasions when a cavalry regiment left India a few men chose to stay on and were drafted into the 13th. The men were issued with new Martini-Henry carbines on 6th July 1878 in place of the Sniders.
On 8 April 1861 the regiment was renamed the 13th Hussars[1] and in April 1862 the regiment started wearing hussar clothing.[32] The regiment departed for Canada in September 1866 as part of the response to the Fenian raids and sailed for India in January 1874.[32] Robert Baden-Powell, the future leader of the scouts, joined regiment in India in 1876.[33] The regiment served in Afghanistan but saw no action during the Second Anglo-Afghan War.[32]
The Second Boer War[edit]The regiment arrived in South Africa in December 1899 and took part in the Battle of Colenso during the Second Boer War.[34] It formed part of Colonel Burn-Murdoch’s Brigade and had a minor part in the relief of Ladysmith in February 1900.[34]
