Ifc may be well to give here the corrigendum order :— 
“ His Majesty having been pleased to grant the following Mottoes for the Royal 
Artillery— 
TJbique , 
and 
Quo fas et gloria ducant. 
The word TJbique is to be substituted in lieu of all other terms of distinction 
hitherto borne on any part of the Dress or Appointments throughout the Regi¬ 
ment, 1 except in cases where the Royal Arms are borne in full, when the latter 
motto will also be inserted. 
(Signed) A. Dickson, Colonel, 
Woolwich, 1st June, 1833. D.-A.-General.”
