EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Torchlight Demonstration of Firemen at Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada, 1858," showcases an impressive display of loyalty and community spirit in honor of Queen Victoria's birthday. The image, created by an unknown photographer, captures the essence of this historic event as firemen proudly parade in front of Government House. The scene is set against the backdrop of a moonlit night, with the band playing lively tunes and the firemen carrying torches, creating an atmospheric glow. The Governor, the Hon. Mr. Manners Sutton, stands at the entrance of Government House, graciously welcoming the firemen and their guests. The firemen, dressed in their uniforms, form a semicircle in front of the Governor, with a fire-balloon hovering above Government House, having just been released. The figures near the porch include the Governor, his secretary, aide-de-camp, and his son. The Mayor stands opposite to them, near the flagstaff. As the Governor addressed the crowd, he expressed his appreciation for their dedication and loyalty, stating, "gentlemen of the Fire Department, I need not tell you that I reciprocate your feelings on the occasion of her Majesty's natal day." This photograph is a testament to the strong bond between the people of Fredericton and the British monarchy, and is one of the many proofs of the loyalty of the colonies that were continually being received in the mother country.
