| Description: | This page has two panels in a vertical and washed-out green format. The top panel contains images of the following: (1) “Lieut. Howard, of the Connecticut National Guard, U.S., who worked the Gatling (Gun) at Batoche”; (2) “The Hon. Edgar Dewdney, Lieut.-Governor of the North-West Territories, from a photograph by Topley; and “Lieut.-Col. Boulton, commanding the Mounted Infantry Scouts, who captured Louis Riel, from a photograph by Notman & Fraser”. The bottom panel contains one image (4) with the following caption: “View of the Calvary Camp at the Touchwood Hills, from a sketch by Lieut.-Col. Turnball, Quebec Calvary Corps”. The Gatlin Gun had a very limited use in 1885 and proved to be more of a noisemaker than an effective weapon. Acquired by the Gabriel Dumont Institute in April 2004 through a special fund of the Government of Canada. |
