Provenance : From the Collection of U. S. Brigadier General George Allan Dodd (July 26, 1852 – June 28, 1925). Dodd was a veteran of the Indian Wars as well as the SpanishAmerican War where he fought alongside Theodore Roosevelt (later, the 26th American President) and his Rough Riders, most notably at the Battle of San Juan Hill where he distinguished himself. In 1899, he would sail for Manila at the start of the Philippine-American War as part of the 3rd Cavalry and would serve in the Philippines until 1902. Aguinaldo would be captured on March 23, 1901. This would almost certainly be a trophy of war set aside for one of the ranking American commanding officers.
