Military reputation of the highest order is associated with the name borne by the subject of the engraving in the opposite page. The same war which deprived so many distinguished families of their hope and flower, called forth many others into a celebrity which the less apparent, though not less valuable, qualities of their members had not previously rendered to them. During the stormiest scenes of the great campaign of our age, “Where war’s tempest lowered,” the name of Mercer may be traced, by the student of military history, where danger was to be met, or duty to be done. The records of those seasons of storm and carnage afford testimony enough to the gallantry of the head of the family; but in the universal testimony of those who have served with him, a still prouder tribute is found to his invariable humanity and consideration for those placed under his charge. And no lady whose portrait honours our collection has more reason to be proud of the historical reputation of her family than has Miss Mercer. Martin2001 Satisfaction Guaranteed Policy!
