Description:
Elijah Janes was paymaster of the 2nd Regiment of Light Dragoons, where he served under Col. Elisha Sheldon. He began his military career as a cornet on November 16, 1779 and was promoted to Lieutenant eight days later. He was wounded by a horseman's sword on the right wrist on November 20, 1780, and became Paymaster in 1782. The friendship that developed between Janes and fellow lieutenant in Sheldon's regiment James Dole continued after the war and their move to Lansingburgh (now Troy), NY, where Janes became godfather to Dole's daughter. In 1811 Elijah Janes became one of the original directors of the Farmers Bank of Troy. He died February 22, 1823 at the age of 64 and is buried in the Old Lansingburgh (Troy) Cemetery., On December 12, 1776, Congress constituted the 2nd Continental Light Dragoons at Wethersfield, CT, also known as Sheldon's horse after its commander, Elisha Sheldon of CT, for service with the Continental Army.

Two Native Americans attack a group of American loyalists. One of the loyalists lies dead on the ground, another, fallen on his back, is about to be slaughtered by the Indian saying "Shelbu-n for ever." The second Indian, with a feathered headdress, pulls a loyalist by the tails of his coat saying "No-th [North] to the devil." Lord Shelburne (William Petty) looks on, smiling, in spite of being attacked by Britannia who aims her spear at his heart and says, "Inhuman smiling Hypocrite thus to disgrace my unsullied fame." He responds, "be not angry Madam no peace no place." A butcher standing behind Shelburne and with inscription above his head, "Even Butchers weep," wipes tears from his face with a large handkerchief. One of the loyalists expresses the popular sentiment that the British government sacrificed them through peace terms: "Ungrateful Britons to Abandon thus your Loyal friends."
