F-4-os1-11-1Brig. Hamilton Gault / Y. Karsh. – [ca. 1945]

Andrew Hamilton “Hammie” Gault, 1882-1958, was descended from an Anglo-Irish merchant family

which settled in Montreal in 1842 and became dominant players in Canadian textile manufacturing,

insurance, finance, and politics. After attending Bishop's College School in Lennoxville and one year at

McGill University, Gault joined the 2nd Canadian Mounted Rifles and served with distinction as a

subaltern until the end of the South African War in 1901. He continued to serve with the Canadian

militia, eventually becoming a captain with the 5th Royal Highlanders (Black Watch of Canada).

Following the death of his father in 1903, he assumed control of Gault Brothers and Company, the

family cotton manufacturing firm. He married Marguerite Stephens in 1904. Gault was appointed

honorary Consul General for Sweden in 1909-1911, and was a member of the council for the Montreal

Board of Trade, 1911-1913. Upon the outbreak of the First World War in August 1914, he offered to

finance the raising of Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry (PPCLI). He was appointed Senior Major

and Second-in-Command of the Regiment. He was wounded three times, losing his left leg, which

effectively ended his active service in the field. He was promoted to Lieutenant-Colonel and

Commanding Officer of PPCLI in November 1918. For his service in the Great War, Gault was awarded

the Order of the British Empire, the Russian Order of St. Anne with Crossed Swords and the Belgian

Order of the Crown. He was Mentioned in Dispatches four times and was awarded the Distinguished


Service Order for gallantry. Following the war, Gault was married in 1922 for a second time, to Dorothy

Blanche “D.B.” Shuckburgh. Between the two world wars they lived at Hatch Court, Somerset, England,

an estate that Hamilton purchased from Dorothy's aunt. They enjoyed aviation as a hobby. Gault served

as a Conservative Member of Parliament for Taunton from 1924 to 1935. In 1939 he was recalled for

active duty with the Canadian Army in England and was promoted to the rank of Colonel in 1940 and to

Brigadier General in 1942. He returned to his Canadian home at Mount St. Hilaire in Quebec in 1944. In

1947 Gault founded the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry Association and served as the first

National President. He was appointed honorary Colonel of the Regiment shortly before his death on 28

November 1958. Following his death, Dorothy Gault returned to Hatch Court, where she died in 1972.

Hatch Court became the home of Dorothy’s niece Anne and her husband, Cdr. Barry Nation, who

operated a small museum there dedicated to the history of Gault and PPCLI. For further information

see: First in the field : Gault of the Patricias / by Jeffery Williams. – St. Catharines, Ont. : Vanwell Pub.,

1995.

Includes some papers which came into the possession of MGen Cameron B. Ware. Hatch Court records

were in the possession of John Townson, great-nephew of Hamilton Gault, and were transferred to the

Regimental Museum by Jeffery Williams of Ilminster, Somerset, England.

The fonds consists of correspondence, certificates, documents, manuals, programs, menus, posters,

photo albums, scrapbooks, photographs and maps related to Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry

and A. Hamilton Gault's life and his service with the Regiment. Correspondents include Raymond Pelly,

(Duke of Connaught), Kate Blackader, Georges-P. Vanier, Ralph Hodder-Williams, Hugh Niven, J.G.

materials related to Hamilton Gault's funeral, the Hamilton Gault Skill-at-Arms Trophy, and the Hamilton

Gault Memorial Fund. Includes collected personal papers of LCol D.H. Rosser, LCol Agar Adamson, and
