The term "canister" refers to a type of artillery ammunition that contains small metal balls or projectiles within a metal canister. When fired, the canister spreads out, creating a lethal effect over a wide area, particularly effective against infantry. This type of ammunition was commonly used in battles, especially during the Napoleonic Wars and the American Civil War, due to its devastating impact on enemy troops in close formations. Its deadly effectiveness made it a feared weapon on the battlefield.

What is the difference between a shell and a canister?
Shell was (and is) a hollow artillery shell with a bursting charge inside it. During the Civil War era, the bursting charge was gunpowder. Due to unreliable fuzes, and relatively small bursting charges, shell was nowhere near as deadly as a modern artillery shell. Canister was, however, extremely deadly. It consisted of a tin can filled with lead slugs. When filed from a cannon, it acted like a giant sawed-off shotgun, and sprayed lead balls over an arc in front of the cannon. The effective range was 200 yards, but it could be lethal to up to 400 yards.
