The Browne Family’s Picton Medal for the Defence of Gibraltar, contemporarily gilded and named to the American-born Major Arthur Browne, 58th Foot, who was standing beside General Wolfe when he was mortally wounded on Quebec’s Plains of Abraham; he defended Gibraltar throughout the Great Siege and commanded Ireland’s largest Military Fortification during the United Irishmen uprising - his medal passed down the remarkable Browne family, whose extensive network of international connections spanned North America, Ireland and India Defence of Gibraltar 1779-83, General Picton’s Medal, silver, with later but still contemporary gilding, fitted within an additional silver rim, 59mm, the edge with contemporary inscription ‘This Medal presented in 1784 to Major Arthur Browne, 58th Regt. for his services during this Memorable Siege and by him when Lt. Govr. of Kinsale to his eldest Son Thomas Browne Lt. Col. 69th Regt. and a Colonel in the Army’, this inscription and the gilding dating from 1810-12, some rubbing to the edge, otherwise nearly extremely fine and very rare Together with a related Portrait Miniature of Mrs. Thomas Browne, painted by her sister-in-law Maria Bellet Browne, circa 1816, 90mm x 71mm, in original Indian horn frame with gilt brass hanger, 168mm x 140mm overall, signed M B Browne and inscribed on the reverse ‘Mrs General Browne/Maria Browne Pinxt’, good original condition (2) £3,000-£4,000 --- Provenance: Dix Noonan Webb, September 2004 (Medal); Mellors & Kirk, February 2022 (Portrait). Arthur Browne was born in 1743 at Portsmouth, New Hampshire, in what was then British North America, the third son among eight siblings. His father, the Reverend Arthur Browne (1699-1773), was of Scottish ancestry and Irish parentage, and had been born in Drogheda, Ireland. After marriage and ordination, he was expatriated to America in 1729 by the Society for Propagating the Gospel in Foreign Parts. Arthur Senior had a degree from Trinity College Dublin and was a prominent citizen of Portsmouth, a prosperous Anglican minister and a Tory. His status as a leading New England dignitary is confirmed in a 1757 quarter-length portrait by John Singleton Copley. With Wolfe at the Battle of the Plains of Abraham, Quebec On 7 February 1759, aged about 16, Arthur Browne entered military service as a Lieutenant-Fireworker, an artillery officer equivalent to an Ensign. This was probably due to the influence of a relative, Brigadier-General George Williamson, who commanded the Royal Artillery in North America. In the Spring of 1759, Browne embarked with General Wolfe’s expedition to take Quebec. During the Battle of the Plains of Abraham on 13 September 1759, Browne was summoned to act as Brigadier Williamson’s Brigade-Major (Aide de Camp in the field). Lieutenant Browne took post beside Williamson and Wolfe on a small rise near the positions of the 28th Foot and the Louisbourg Grenadiers. Wolfe chose the spot as it enabled him to better observe the attack made by the French under the command of the Marquis de Montcalm. The French forces included about 2,000 irregulars who were good shots and used to guerilla warfare. Wolfe’s command group made a conspicuous target, and early on Wolfe was wounded in the wrist. He allowed the French line to advance within 30 yards of the British before giving the order to fire. Within a few moments he had been hit twice, in the stomach and, mortally, in the chest. The French turned and fled, while a cry went up "They run, see how they run." Wolfe, on the ground, opened his eyes and asked who was running. Upon being told that the French had broken, he turned on his side and said "Now, God be praised, I will die in peace" and expired. The victorious British force spent a miserable winter in the captured city, losing men from scurvy and disease. By the spring of 1760 the garrison had shrunk to 4,000 regulars and before the ice melted Montcalm’s successor marched to Quebec with 7,000 men, aiming to recapture the city before British ships could return with vital supplies and reinforcements. On 28 April 1760, 3,000 men with 22 guns left the city to attack the French at the Heights of Abraham. Arthur Browne was in command of two six-pound field guns and attached to the 35th Regiment. During the battle, Browne was ordered to take one of his guns forward to support Captain Ince’s grenadier company. The grenadiers were massacred, with Ince and 54 men becoming casualties (out of a total of 64 - 86% losses). Two of Browne’s gun team were killed, four wounded and Browne was himself wounded in the hip. The British attack failed completely, with the loss of 1,100 troops and their guns. The survivors retired within the city walls. A month later the British fleet arrived, the French lifted their siege and retreated to Montreal. Further Service in the Seven Years War Soon afterwards, Lieutenant-Colonel William Howe of the 58th Foot (later Commander-in-Chief in America during the Revolutionary War) invited Browne to leave the artillery and join his regiment. On 18 October 1760 Browne was gazetted an Ensign in the 58th Foot. After the capture of Canada was completed, the 58th marched via Lake Champlain to New York. In 1762 the 58th Foot was part of a reinforcement, which, despite the loss of 500 men to French naval attacks while en route from North America, was decisive in enabling the storming of the great Morro Fortress that guarded the entrance to Havana bay and thus the subsequent capture of Havana, the capital of the Spanish West Indies. In February 1763 Browne commanded a detachment of the 58th serving as marines on board H.M.S. Ripon (60). On 29 April 1763 Browne purchased a Lieutenancy in the 58th Foot. After the Peace in 1763, the 58th moved to Ireland. Browne bought a Captain-Lieutenancy in 1770. The Great Siege of Gibraltar In June 1770 Spain forced the British to leave their settlement in the Falkland Islands. The colony was quickly re-established, but the countries nearly declared war. The 58th Foot embarked at Cork and was sent to strengthen the garrison of Gibraltar. Arthur purchased his company in April 1772 aged 29, becoming Captain Browne. Spain entered the American War of Independence on 16 June 1779, at a time when the British were hard pressed. Within a week, Spain began its blockade of Gibraltar. The small (5,400 man) garrison under Governor-General George Eliott was hampered by shortages of men and supplies. Despite these difficulties, Eliott mounted a vigorous defence. Many of the infantry were hand-picked to assist the artillery in serving the guns. Given Browne’s previous artillery experience, he is thought to have been among them. He received his second wound, a severe contusion caused by a shell-splinter, but remained on duty. During the winter of 1779 the garrison began to suffer from lack of fresh provisions, which caused a debilitating outbreak of scurvy among the troops. Small quantities of salt meat and biscuits were the standard meal, with an occasional issue of four ounces of rice as a full day's ration. Due to lack of fuel, fires were only made with difficulty, using salt-encrusted timbers from old ships. Despite their privations, morale remained high, and the troops continued to take their turns in the trenches and batteries. In January 1780 Admiral Rodney defeated the Spanish screening squadron and replenished the Rock with 1,000 reinforcements and a limited quantity of essential supplies. The Spanish stepped up the bombardment and blockade, which was broken a second time by Admiral Darby in April 1781. By this time the garrison consisted of 7,000 British and Hanoverian regulars.

British War Medal 1914-20 (D. H. Darley.) extremely fine £80-£100 --- Miss Daphne Harriot Darley was born in Paris in January 1878, the second daughter of Captain Henry Darley of Aldby Park, Yorkshire. As a young 22 year-old woman she served as a popular Lady Mayoress of Scarborough after the premature death of her mother. She later volunteered for the Y.M.C.A. during the Great War, before transferring to the Church Army in the summer of 1918 and served in Italy from June 1918 to February 1919. Posted to France from February 1919 to April 1919, it seems likely that she spent these final months assisting with conveying families across the Channel so that they could visit loved ones in hospital; with information scant and the scale of loss so huge, it also fell to volunteers to offer spiritual comfort and practical advice for thousands of bereaved families keen to begin a pilgrimage to the battlefields. The sensitive and often upsetting work was unpaid and the Church Army and Y.M.C.A. volunteers had to meet their own living expenses. Returned home to 7 Trevor Square, Knightsbridge, Miss Darley married Lieutenant-Colonel John Acton Brooke in London on 7 May 1930. The couple later returned north to the family seat at Aldby Park before retiring to Sibton Park, Saxmundham, Suffolk. She died there on 28 February 1954. Confirmed as full entitlement. Sold with a portrait photograph of the recipient.

A rare ‘Assye’ three clasp Army of India Medal awarded to Captain J. Smith, 12th Madras Native Infantry, considered by Arthur Wellesley (later the Duke of Wellington) to be his most effective H.E.I.C. Regiment; Smith was wounded at Assaye, probably by cannon fire, which was described by Wellesley as ‘the hottest that has been known in this country’ Army of India 1799-1826, 3 clasps, Assye, Argaum, Gawilghur (Lieut. Jas. Smith, 12th N.I.) short hyphen reverse, officially impressed naming; together with a fine portrait miniature of the recipient, framed and glazed, 52mm x 40mm, the first lightly polished, otherwise very fine and rare (2) £10,000-£14,000 --- Provenance: Sotheby’s, May 2000; Dix Noonan Webb, December 2003. Approximately 149 medals issued with three clasps, 52 with this combination which is unique to the regiment. Arthur Wellesley (later Duke of Wellington) received these same three clasps, of which only 85 were issued for Assaye. Only four of the officers wounded at Assaye lived to claim their medals. James Smith was born in 1784. He was accepted for military service in the H.E.I.C. and appointed to 2nd Battalion, 12th Regiment, Madras Native Infantry. His commissions for the ranks of Ensign and Lieutenant both bear the date 20 July 1801. Lieutenant Smith was wounded at the battle of Assaye on 23 September 1803, the most famous victory won in India by Arthur Wellesley, later the Duke of Wellington. Smith is one of only four officers who were wounded in the battle and lived to claim their medal. Although outnumbered by three to one, Wellesley made an audacious frontal attack on the massed enemy regular battalions which were packed onto a battlefield running north to south, with both their flanks protected by converging rivers. The enemy’s northern flank was additionally anchored on the village of Assye, which had been turned into a heavily fortified stronghold, with heavy guns and infantry protected behind mud walls. Wellesley’s intention was to stay well clear of Assye village and if necessary deal with it after the end of the main battle. Unfortunately, the commander of his right wing mistakenly advanced directly towards it, leading Smith’s regiment into a hurricane of fire which annihilated both the leading H.E.I.C. troops and the 74th Foot. The shattered remnants of the British right were then charged by enemy cavalry. Wellesley’s cavalry retrieved the situation with a countercharge, his battered infantry surged forward and the enemy swung back to a final defensive position arcing westwards from Assye along the northern river bank. As the 2/12th Madras N.I. moved up to take part in the last decisive attack, they were again bombarded by the guns in Assye village. Wellington’s men smashed the enemy infantry and captured all their artillery, at the cost of 27% casualties (compared with 24% at Waterloo). Many years after Waterloo, Wellington was asked to name the best thing he ever did in the way of fighting; he replied “Assye.” The 2/12th M.N.I. had the second highest casualties of all Wellesley’s units engaged at Assye, mostly from enemy artillery fire which was described by Wellesley as “the hottest that has been known in this country”. The battalion lost 212 men and six European officers, including the C.O., Lieutenant-Colonel Macleod, who Wellesley considered to be his best H.E.I.C. battalion commander. Smith recovered from his injuries in time to take part in Wellesley’s next battle, at Argaum on 29 November 1803. The survivors of 2/12th M.N.I. proved somewhat shy, due to their shortage of European officers, their experience of suffering artillery bombardment at Assye and the presence of 1,500 highly professional Arab mercenaries among their adversaries. When the Maratha guns opened fire, two teams of ten bullocks pulling 6-pounder guns bolted, careering back through the infantry and causing several sepoy units including 2/12th M.N.I. to break and flee. Wellesley was close at hand but he could not stop the panic immediately and quietly ordered Smith and the other officers to lead their men into cover. There they re-formed their ranks, when Wellesley led them to their correct positions and ordered them to lie down. After a while, all his battalions began a steady advance through artillery fire towards the enemy line, and destroyed their adversaries, with repeated measured volley fire. Lieutenant Smith participated in the audacious storming in December 1803 of the hilltop fortress of Gawilghur, which was garrisoned by 8,000 men armed with brand-new British Brown Bess muskets, 52 cannon and 150 light swivel guns. He was promoted to Captain in June 1813 but invalided out of the Madras Native Infantry in April 1818, on account of his wounds. Smith’s India medal was issued from the Adjutant General’s Office on 1 April 1852. He had chosen to stay on in India rather than return to Britain and transferred to the 1st Native Veteran Battalion. He is still shown on the strength of this unit in 1856, when he would have been 70 years old. Captain Smith died on 5 June 1859, and is buried in St Mary’s Cemetery, Madras.
