Description
Instituted in 1899. 1 Clasp - FENIAN RAID 1870 (Pte. H.W. Perry. 60th. Bn.). In silver, engraver marked "T.B." on the obverse, measuring 36.3 mm in diameter. Naming is officially impressed. Dark patina, edge nicks, very light contact overall, shortened replacement ribbon, near extremely fine.
Footnote: The Canada General Service Medal was instituted in January 1899 and was awarded to members of Imperial forces and Canadian Militia who fought against Fenian raiders who came north during the aftermath of the American Civil War. Private Henry W. Perry is shown on the roll of the 79 man 60th (Missisquoi Infantry) Battalion and is listed on page 140 of the "Canada General Service Medal Roll, 1866-70" by John Thyen, entitled to the Fenian Raid 1866 clasp and noted as having been in action at the Battle of Eccles Hill (AKA The War at the Border) on May 25, 1870. The Fenians crossed the Canadian border into Quebec and proceeded to the top of Eccles Hill where they were confronted by members of the Canadian home guard and volunteers. The Fenians were overwhelmed by local militia units and armed citizens, and were compelled to abandon what was anticipated to have been a "glorious victory".
