One for the Canadian Collectors
Sir Daniel Hunter Mcmillan served in the Fenian Raids of 1866, the Red River Expedition of 1870 and the North West Rebellion of 1885. He served as Lieutenant Governor of Manitoba from 1899 to 1911. He was created a KCMG in 1902. I just finished the display with the addition of a court sword and a period Manitoba bison statue. The bison's image is part of our provincial heritage and appears on the province's coat of arms and flag. The warrant for the coat of arms for Manitoba was granted by Edward VII in 1905 while McMillan was Lieutenant Governor. The photograph shows McMillan in his uniform after the award of the KCMG.
