The volunteers only saw action against Gabriel Dumont 's Metis forces at the Battle Of Duck Lake on March 26 , 1885 where they suffered the heaviest casualties of combatants involved. Most of those who died are buried at St. Mary's Church cemetary just west of Prince Albert. For the remainder of the rebellion the volunteers stayed penned up in the stockade at Prince Albert until relieved by General Frederick Middleton and his Northwest Field Force after the Battle Of Batoche . |
