“Medal awarded to Major Stewart. This represents the medal the size of the original. The device is America personified by an Indian queen, who is presenting a palm branch to Major Stewart. A quiver is at her back; her left hand is resting on the American shield, and at her feet is an alligator crouchant. The legend is, ‘Joanni Stewart Cohortis Prefecto, Comitia Americana,’ ‘The American Congress to Major John Stewart.’"—Lossing, 1851
