placed under the flaps, only the
white edges appearing. This new style of feather display was, it is
stated, in compliance with an order from the War Office, issued shortly
before Brock's death. Previously the plumes were worn more
conspicuously.

_Queenston Heights and Brock's Monument._

"_Major-General Brock, 18x6._"

From a vignette photograph loaned by Miss FitzGibbon, Toronto, and now
published for the first time in any Life of Brock. As doubt has been
expressed by some admirers of Brock as to the authenticity of this
portrait, Miss FitzGibbon's written endorsation is here quoted:

"The photograph is from an original miniature portrait of Major-General
(afterwards Sir) Isaac Brock, painted by J. Hudson, 18x6--1806--the date
of General Brock's last visit to England. The miniature is now in
possession of Miss S. Mickle, Toronto."

This full-face vignette is of exceptional interest, all other portraits
of Brock being in profile, and is likely to challenge preconceived
notions.
