Patrick Doherty belonged to a good old Irish family which has done good service to its country, both in the army and on the judicial bench. In the two great wars in which Great Britain played a leading part during the 19th century, the 13th Regt. of Lt. Dgns. (Hussars) has been commanded by a Doherty; and three generations of this family have been closely associated with this same regt. In 1796 Patrick Doherty embarked for the West Indies with his regt. on active service. It is on record that no less than twenty-two officers of the 13th Lt. Dgns. fell victims to “Yellow Jack” when serving in St. Domingo; and the skeleton of the regt., with two or three surviving officers, returned to England. This fatality brought rapid promotion to Doherty, and in 1813 he succeeded to the command of the 13th. For his services in the Pa. he was made bt.-col. The editor of the _Military Calendar_ states that on Waterloo Day Col. Doherty was lying ill at Brussels, suffering from a most severe attack of West Indian fever and ague; but as it is probable that he took part in the operations of the 16th or 17th June, it does not debar him from being added to the roll of Waterloo officers. He undoubtedly received the medal for Waterloo, as well as the C.B. in 1816. Col. Doherty was subsequently made K.C.H. Quitted the service in Dec., 1818, and d. at Bath, 20th Jan., 1837. He was uncle to John Doherty, of Dublin, who held the high post of Chief Justice of Ireland, and dying, in 1850, left, with other male issue, the present Maj. H. Doherty, of the Artillery Militia, who formerly commanded a troop in the 3rd Hussars. Footnote 2: Made C.B. for Waterloo. Served in the Pa. 2nd son of Samuel Boyse, of Barrow, New Ross, co. Wexford, by Dorothea, dau. of Shapland Carew, of Castleboro, same county. D., unm., 1833. Footnote 3: There were three of this family in the regt. in 1815. Brook Lawrence served thirty-eight years in this regt., and was made bt.-lt.-col. for Waterloo. He d. at Brompton 11th Aug., 1823, aged 59. Footnote 4: Son of Col. P. Doherty. Promoted maj. in this regt. 8th Dec., 1818. D. at Bangalore 12th June, 1819. Footnote 5: Served in the Pa. and in India. In the last charge made by his regt. at Waterloo was wounded in the ankle, which troubled him ever afterwards. Quitted the service in 1823. D. at Kames House, Millport, 17th Sept., 1852. The Clan Alester of Kintyre and the Isles is one of the oldest in Scotland. Footnote 6: Promoted maj. in same regt. 5th June, 1823. M. Eleanor, eldest dau. of Lt.-Gen. Sir Thos. Dallas, and had issue. D. 1831. Footnote 7: Fell by a cannon ball when charging with his regt. at Waterloo. “The moment of his death was that of victory.” See flattering notice in the _Gentleman’s Magazine_ for 1815, II., p. 275. Footnote 8: Serving in 1817. Out of the regt. in 1818. Footnote 9: Youngest son of Munbee Goulburn, of Portland Place, by the Hon. Susanna Chetwynd, eldest dau. of Wm. 4th Visct. Chetwynd.

He had taken out his watch to remark the time, when the regt. was ordered to advance; and not being able to return it, he put it into the breast of his jacket, and thus providentially his life was saved.” (Anecdote by T. Carter.) K.H. Attained the rank of maj., and d. at Dublin in Dec., 1835. Footnote 12: Eldest son of John Armstrong Drought, of Lettybrook, King’s County, by Letitia Head, of Ashley Park, Tipperary.
