The unit is not identified but are presumed to have taken part in the Battle of Eccles Hill or Pigeon Hill.
The Canadian forces which took part in these battles were comprised of companies from the 60th Mississquoi Volunteer Battalion, the Victoria Rifles of Montreal, the 1st Prince of Wales Rifles, the 5th Royals, the 6th Hochelaga Light Infantry, the Montreal Troop of Cavalry, and a detachment of the Montreal Garrison Artillery.
The Fenians were routed at the battles of Eccles Hill and Pigeon Hill, and the disheartened remnants of the “Irish Republican Army” straggled back to Vermont. As a result, the Fenian movement lost the majority of its support, and, within a year, it would collapse entirely.
