Napier writes that his son, Francis, has entered the army in the 31st Regiment of Foot Soldiers, but will spend the next few years in Scotland finishing off his education, as the Regiment is to be quartered in Scotland for a number of years, which he notes was a great inducement for him to join that regiment.
