- Lot Description
Single-piece, tapered hardwood shaft, 35.25 in. ln., no ferrule, with shield-shaped plaque attached inscribed USS Oneida/ Sackets Harbor/ War of/ 18[1]2. A fine relic cane fashioned from wood salvaged from the USS Oneida, a brig of war for the US Navy during the War of 1812.
Between 1808-1809, the USS Oneida was built at Oswego, NY and under the command of Lieutenant M.T. Woolsey, she was brought to Sackets Harbor, NY. The ship played a significant role in detecting and repulsing the British during the first attack on Sackets Harbor on July 19, 1812. It is believed that this exchange between the British and the Oneida crew constitutes the first shots fired on US land during the War of 1812.
Some light wear to cane's handle, few nicks in shaft. Some tarnish to plaque, some small dents in plaque.Condition
