Engraved Lantern
Presented to Lt. Sickles
17th NYV Battery
Engraved lighthouse-shaped lantern that was presented to Lieutenant Hiram E. Sickles of the 17th New York Battery of Light Artillery. The glass is molded w/ a reinforcing ring at the top and bottom and is engraved "H. E. SICKLES / 17TH N. Y. V. BATTERY" with wreaths above and below. The brass is unsigned, though the ring handle closely resembles those made by Tufts Bros. of Boston. The thumbwheel is marked "J. SANGSTER PATENT / MARCH 25TH 1862." Other than a small split on one of the locking slides and slight warping of the base, which does not affect the stability, the lamp is in very good condition and apparently all original.
Hiram Sickles was a young lawyer when the Civil War broke out. He helped organize the 17th New York Volunteer Light Artillery Battery, aka the Orleans Battery, and enlisted as a 1st Lieutenant in August 1862. Sickles served with the battery at the capture Fort Fisher, the battles around Richmond and the Petersburg campaign. He was brevetted a captain and mustered out in 1865 in Richmond, VA. After the war Sickles continued his law practice, became involved in NY politics and became a Court of Appeals reporter. (Measures 12.5-inches tall.)
