Brunn, Sword Cutler to his Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, No. 55 Charing Cross London. Provenance. The Meldonfoot Collection, Phillips Scotland 1st October 1991 Lot 160.Presented to Admiral Sir Philip Charles Durham by The Duke of Clarence. Philip Durham entered the Navy in 1777 and as a Midshipman saw service in America and Gibraltar. As acting Lieutenant he survived the sinking of the Royal George in 1782. He was officially promoted in December 1783 and served on various ships until 1790 when he was promoted to Commander. He achieved post rank in 1793 and was appointed to the Anson, the largest frigate in the Navy, in 1794. It was in this ship in 1798 that he captured La Loire, a deed for which he was given this sword. He later commanded the Defiance at Trafalgar, where he was wounded. He continued his lengthy and distinguished career and in 1830 became a full Admiral and was appointed Knight Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath. He died in 1845. The Duke of Clarence, later King William IV, was known as the "Sailor Prince". He entered the Navy in 1779, attained the rank of Captain in 1786 and was best man at Nelson's wedding in 1797. He gave a number of swords to naval officers who had distinguished themselves in various ways. At first these were similar to those given to officers of the 10th Light Dragoons by his brother, the Prince of Wales in 1792. Later the swords adhered to the 1805 and 1827 patterns. This particular sword was given to Durham in 1794 when he was summoned to Court and the Duke took off his own sword and sword belt and offered them as a mark of esteem. Only about half a dozen of these swords are known to exist and, as they were not inscribed with the recipient's name, only two others can definitely be ascribed to a beneficiary, these being those given to Admirals Duckworth and Collingwood. A unique opportunity to acquire a sword with Royal provenance, which is being offered for sale for only the second time in two hundred and thirty years.

Ivory Declaration Submission Reference NCSMT6X2.Colin Campbell entered the Navy in 1799 as a First Class Volunteer on the Anson under Captain Philip Durham, latterly as a Midshipman. After serving on a number of ships, he rejoined Durham on the Defiance as Master's Mate in 1805, participating in the Battle of Trafalgar. He obtained his commission in January 1806 and served in the West Indies at the reduction of Martinique and Guadeloupe in 1809-10. He was officially posted in 1815 and advanced to flag rank in 1846. The inscription refers to him as a Lieutenant in December 1804, although he did not receive his commission until 1806. He probably was given the sword on his appointment as Master's Mate, a rank which, at that time, was on a par with that of a Lieutenant.
