Abstract: I am publishing today the following interesting letter (by kind permission of the owner) for general information. The letter was written by a Scottish soldier, J. Laing, serving in Malta in the early years of British rule, on the 16th April 1807. Writing to his father in Edinburgh, Scotland, the author narrates in detail the mutiny that took place on the 4th April, 1807 in one of the Foreign Corps under the direction of British Officers, known by the name of "Colonel Grunt Froberg's Regiment", stationed at Fort Ricasoli.
