He subsequently attained to the rank of captain and major in the 8th Regiment of Light Dragoons (later the 8th King's Royal Irish Hussars).After leaving the regular service, he became a captain in the Hopetoun Fencibles (7th regiment of fencibles) sometime between 2 February 1793 to 1799 under James, the 3rd Earl of Hopetoun.
