DIED on the 29th ult at Port Elizabeth, aged 42, Lieutenant Richard LAMONT, late of the Royals, which Regiment he entered in July 1809, when they were encamped on South Sea Common, destined for the Walcheren Expedition; he was present during all the actions and skirmishes upon that occasion; he afterwards served in the West Indies, with the Second Battalion of that Regiment, from thence went to North America, and was present during all the late American War, from its commencement in 1812 until its termination, embracing all the general actions, in one of which (Lund’s Lane) in Canada he particularly distinguished himself by taking with a single company of his Regiment, three times the number of his men, prisoners, for which he received the warmest thanks from the Commander in Chief, General DRUMMOND, on the Field of Action. Mr. LAMONT was twice treacherously taken prisoner by the Americans, from whom however he made his escape each time in a manner truly miraculous. This event has unfortunately impeded his promotion in a Service to which he always was sincerely devoted, and left a widow with a young family to lament his loss.
