Finely framed tintype, 73.7x63.6mm in cased, clear image, very fine. Footnote: Ensign Thomas Anson Knowlton was born on 22 Aug 1844 in Brome, Quebec. He was the son of Luke and Mary Knowlton from Vermont, USA. Luke Knowlton was the first permanent settler of what is now the village of Knowlton, Quebec in the Eastern Townships. Thomas Knowlton served as an Ensign in the 52nd Brome BN which was headquartered in Knowlton, Quebec in 1869. In the spring of 1870 the Battalion was called out when scouts reported a concentration of Fenians near St Albans, Vermont. The 52nd was ordered to guard points west and east of Frelighsburg. At one point an attack was expected on the Whitney Road two miles south of the village and some companies were concentrated in this area. When the actual attack did take place on 25 May 1870, the Fenians were decisively turned back by the Missisquoi Home Guard and retreated in disarray . The 52nd along with other Militia companies, were moved to the battle site under cover of darkness on the night of 25 May as the Fenians were reported to be regrouping and another attack was expected. They stayed there on alert for several days but no further attacks were made. Following his military service Thomas Anson Knowlton became the proprieter of mills for the manufacture of kindling-wood for the Boston market. He resided on the banks of Brome Lake, in the town of Foster, Quebec. He was the first Knowlton outside the US to join a movement which resulted in the organization of the Knowlton Association of America and the production of its history. He married Sarah D. Foster (daughter of the Hon Asa Belknap Foster Conservative Senator for Bedford, Quebec) on 25 Feb 1868 and they had four children (Laura, Paul, Thomas A. and George). Thomas Knowlton died on 25 Oct 1906 in Guilford, Maine, USA and is buried in Knowlton Cemetery in Knowlton, Quebec.

He was a resident of Montreal, Quebec when he signed his Application for Engagement in the North West Mounted Police Force, on June 27, 1885 in Ottawa, Ontario, coming recommended by F.C. Silcock of the Johnson Fluid Beef Company of Montreal, naming his next-of-kin as his father, S.B. Faddy of West Norwood, London, S.E., England, stating that he had previous service with the \"Volunteers\" (Cadet Corps) in England, that he was Single and that his trade was that of Railway Worker. During his medical examination, it was noted that he was \"moderately educated\" and that he had two tattoos on the left side, one on the forearm and one on the shoulder. He officially enlisted as a Constable (1477) with the North West Mounted Police Force of Canada, signing his Oath of Allegiance and Oath of Office on July 9, 1885 in Regina, Saskatchewan. Faddy participated in a defensive roll with the NWMP during the North West Rebellion of 1885 and is listed on the Roll of those who received the North West Canada Medal without clasp. By 1890, he was stationed in Lethbridge, Alberta. In a letter to the Officer Commanding, \"K\" Division, NWMP in Lethbridge, dated April 15, 1890, he wrote \"I have the honour to request that you will forward the enclosed pass for one month to the Commissioner for approval, my reason being to attend to urgent private affairs in England. My intentions are to take my discharge.\" Three days later, his request was approved on the 18th. He was officially discharged on June 26, 1890 at Regina, having served five years and his conduct noted as \"very good\". Upon arrival in England, he took up residence at his father' home in West Norwood, London, S.E., England and was living there when he received a letter from a Comptroller in Canada, dated July 2, 1890. Faddy had requested information about land grants for members of the North West Mounted Police, but the Comptroller stated that the granting of land grants had been discontinued to any person who had entered the police force after July 1, 1879. Faddy later moved to South Africa, enlisting with the Natal Mounted Police and serving with them for four years. With hostilities in full swing during the Boer War, he enlisted as a Corporal (66) with \"A\" Squadron, Loch's Horse, the corps having been raised by Lord Loch in February 1900. It might be said that having been largely recruited in England it was not a Colonial force, but in the official army lists Loch's Horse was always included among the South African Irregulars and was disbanded in April 1901. Faddy is listed on the Roll of Individuals entitled to the Queen's South Africa Medal with four Clasps (Cape Colony, Orange Free State, Johannesburg, Diamond Hill), the document dated September 4, 1901 at Cape Town. Two months after the unit's disbanding, now age 36, living in a hotel in Johannesburg and still willing to serve, he signed his Attestation Paper as a Trooper (1937) with No. 2 Troop, \"A\" Division, South African Constabulary, on June 6, 1901. He stated that he had five years' previous service with the North West Mounted Police, four years with the Natal Mounted Police and fourteen months with Loch's Horse. As a member of Loch's Horse, he stated that he had \"traversed the country\" and that he was able to ride and shoot, along with stating his marital status as Single. Faddy served one year with the South African Constabulary, before being discharged on June 5, 1902 and is listed on the Roll of Individuals entitled to the King's South Africa Medal with two Clasps (South Africa 1901, South Africa 1902), the document dated 1903 at Potchefstroom.\n ","brand":"eMedals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46112935182613,"sku":"C3069","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/9105\/2053\/files\/img_02_2a9c54eb-9bed-42af-8d64-260e6bc88326.jpg?v=1692852307"},{"product_id":"the-awards-of-lieutenant-colonel-alf-jarvis-governor-generals-foot-guards-c3157","title":"The Awards Of Lieutenant Colonel A.l.f.

It spent its first thirty years sailing between San Francisco, California and Australia, San Francisco and Portland, Oregon, and fishing for cod in the Bering Sea. The Hera was not only valued for the significant role it played in the 1898 Gold Rush to the Yukon and Alaska, it also provides an important illustration of the integral role that ships of this type played in trade and transportation between the Pacific Northwest, Vancouver Island, Alaska, and Hawaii in the late nineteenth century. It departed Seattle, Washington for Honolulu, Hawaii on November 18, 1899 loaded with grain, eleven grand pianos, 1,800 barrels of lime, a pre-fabricated school house and 60,000 quart bottles of the Seattle Malting and Brewing Company’s Rainier beer. The Hera caught fire and sank in Tofino Harbour, British Columbia on November 25, 1899. The vessel's lower hull, which is still intact to the turn of the bilge (the point where the ship's walls join the bottom) measures 40.3 meters in length by 8.9 meters in width. The wreck lies on the sea floor in twelve metres of water off the east end of Felice Island, immediately northwest of Tofino, barrels of lime and kegs of bottled Rainier beer surviving at the wreck site as part of the cargo the ship was carrying. The area is often referred to as the \"Graveyard of the Pacific,\" the shipwreck of the Hera indicative of the treacherous conditions that sailors and ships endured as part of transportation and shipping activity in this area. David Griffiths, Executive Director of the Tonquin Foundation, is a diver and a full-time resident of Tofino, British Columbia. In \"The Sinking of the Hera\", he documents the ship's final voyage and subsequent discovery: \"The Hera, departed Seattle for Honolulu on November 18th 1899 with a 700 ton cargo that included grain, animal feed, flour, tin-ware, grand pianos, 1800 barrels of Roche Harbour lime, a knocked-down schoolhouse on deck and 60,000 quart bottles of Seattle Malting and Brewing Company’s “Rainier” beer, packed in 1000 oak-staved barrels. Aboard were Captain J.J. Warren, part-owner Mr. Shirk and his daughter Mabel, as well as fifteen crew members. The Hera sheltered at Clallam Bay for a week as continual storms chewed up the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Finally Warren raised sail and the Hera crept passed Cape Flattery, straight into the teeth of a raging southeaster which began to sweep her towards the unforgiving shore of Vancouver Island. As the gale worsened and Captain and crew fought to wear the ship out to sea, water began seeping between the hull planks of the aging Hera. It soon became apparent that the pumps could not handle the increasing flow and even though the volatile lime had been loaded high in the hold, on top of the other cargo, it got a good soaking. The barrels swelled and burst and the lime began to smoulder. Warren later wrote, “The smell of smoke put the crew into a frenzy; sealing companionways, hatches, vents and caulking open deck seams in an attempt to smother the growing inferno”. With his vessel afire and in a leaking condition Warren ran her before the wind, towards land. For twenty-four hours straight the crew manned the pumps and attempted to contain the fire. Late on the afternoon of November 25th, the Hera dropped anchor off Lennard Island, at the approach to Templar Channel, Clayoquot Sound. The sea was still high and the fire increasing in intensity when Warren had the vessel’s only lifeboat swung out and he, Shirk, Mabel and two crewmen set off to get help from the settlement on Stubbs Island. Before they reached it, a group of local men in the Tofino lifeboat, with Fillip Jacobsen at the tiller, had already set out for the stricken Hera. Abandoned, the Hera drifted with the incoming tide into and around Tofino Harbour. The fire, now consuming decks, masts and rigging, lit up the dark, November night. Mrs. Spain on Stubbs Island wrote: “As I write she is just in front of the house, one of the grandest yet one of the most awful sights I have ever seen. The whole room is lit up with the light from her, and I have only to turn my head to see her. She is one mass of roaring flame, and it is a very black night, the whole harbour is lit up.\" Finally, as water filled her holds, the Hera slipped to the seafloor off Felice Island and entombed up by the sands of Clayoquot Sound. In December of 1974, seventy-five years after the Hera disappeared from view, a commercial crab fisherman alerted Tofino diver, maritime historian and all-round wreck hound, Rod Palm, to the fact that one of his traps had fouled on the bottom and that when he’d pulled up the trap’s line it was rust-stained. Never one to turn down a lead, Palm immediately headed out to the site and followed the line down. On reaching bottom he found the line tangled around a large ship’s deck knee, protruding about a foot out of the sand. A quick scan of the area revealed more visible deck knees, ship’s rigging, deadeyes, and bottles everywhere. Closer inspection showed that the whole port-side of the vessel, above the waterline, was exposed. A quick check through his files and Palm was able to identify the partially buried hulk as that of the Hera. Given the wreck’s fine state of preservation and the fact that he had dove that area many times before without seeing any evidence of a shipwreck, Palm concluded that the sands of Clayoquot Sound had only recently eased their grip on the old schooner. Palm’s euphoria over the discovery quickly turned to concern for the wreck’s protection. A trip to Victoria and a visit to the Heritage Conservation Branch ensured its legal protection under the old Historic Sites Act, designating the Hera wreck British Columbia’s first protected, underwater heritage site. With permission from the Heritage Conservation Branch to undertake a four day test excavation, Palm returned to Tofino only to find that a group of divers from Port Alberni had salvaged all visible and easily accessible deadeyes which, after realizing they had too many to transport back home, they dumped overboard at the Government Wharf in Tofino. Undaunted, Palm undertook his excavation, which revealed that the fire had indeed ravaged the Hera’s decks, rigging and most of the lime but her hull, cargo and fittings below the lime had escaped the inferno and were in a remarkably good state of preservation. Most of her 1000 barrel cargo of bottled beer remained intact; their intended destination stenciled in black paint on the barrel tops “Lovejoy \u0026amp; Co., Honolulu”. There must have been an awful lot of thirsty Hawaiians, back in the winter of 1899. On August 12 \u0026amp; 13 divers and surface support from the Tonquin Foundation, under a permit from the Provincial Archaeology Branch, removed 30 fouled and abandoned commercial crab traps from the Hera wreck. The site was also marked bow and stern with green wreck marker buoys in the hope that further loss of traps and damage to the site will cease. Under the terms of the Heritage Conservation Act it is an offence to disturb the site or remove any cultural material from it. Please Respect Our Maritime Heritage.\" Griffiths stated that of the 1,000 barrels containing the quart-bottles of beer, \"Some of the bottles still have labels on them.\" He tried drinking the beer in 2005, exclaiming that \"it wasn't very nice at all. You couldn't get close to it. It was pretty skunky.\" The Hera was designated British Columbia's first protected underwater heritage site and its anchor is now on display at Grice Park in Tofino.","brand":"eMedals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46115894165781,"sku":"C3841","price":750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/9105\/2053\/files\/a_2_9.jpg?v=1692855408"},{"product_id":"a-canada-general-service-medal-to-the-grand-trunk-railway-artillery-c4005","title":"A Canada General Service Medal To The Grand Trunk Railway Artillery","description":"FENIAN RAID 1866, RED RIVER 1870 (Gr.
