His Brother in Law retired Colonel De Vic Tupper seems to have suffered with mental health. In his 1891 biography, he wrote a section stating Carey had had him illegally committed. The Star Newspaper on Tuesday 10th February 1891 covered the libel suit; the following was the basis of the lawsuit. 'On the 9th February 1875, Major Charles Le Mesurier Carey, brother-in-law of the undersigned, Vice President of the Asylum Board, in which capacity he had charge thereof, obtained by surprise, or, bought, at all events obtained from Dr A. K. Corbin, who was Just beginning to practice (son of Dr Jasil Corbin) the last named being the regular medical attendant of the undersigned, a certificate certifying the undersigned to be mad, and the said day, 9th of February, 1875, the undersigned saw his house invaded by four artillerymen and a corporal, and despite his resistance, which can be well understood, he was apprehended, bound, and carried off as a dangerous man to the Asylum, where he was thrown, bruised, covered with blows and blood, into a cell, without receiving any attention until the following morning'. It was proved to be a complete falsehood, and Carey was awarded £50 in damages, and Tupper was fined £50. Carey passed away in 1905, his death was announced in the Army and Navy Gazette. ' Major Charles Le Mesurier Carey, late 63rd Regiment, died at Beaumont, Guernsey, on the 30th ult., aged 78. He joined the Army as Ensign Aug. 13, 1847; was promoted to Lieutenant Jan. 18, 1850; Captain Nov. 6, 1854; and Major June 6, 1856. He resigned by a sale of his commission in 1862 and had since that time been Lieutenant-Colonel in the Royal Guernsey Light Infantry Militia. Major Carey served in the Eastern Campaign of 1854 and to July 1855, including the battles of Alma, Balaclava, and Inkerman, and the siege of Sebastopol (medal with four clasps, brevet of Major, and Turkish medal).
