The wooden honour roll commemorates members of the Manchester Unity Independent Order of Oddfellows Loyal Nil Desperandum Lodge who served in World War One and World War Two. 

It was originally unveiled in August 1917. 

The Loyal Nil Desperandum Lodge, No. 132, had a fitting ceremony on the occasion of unveiling the roll of honor, their tribute to the brave members who went at the country's call to defend the right against the wrong; also of presenting to P.D.G.M. Bro. W. F. Davis, who is now in business at Wagga with a token of esteem— a gold watch (suitably inscribed) and chain. At a special, request, Bro. G. C. O'Brien, Grand Master of the Order in New South Wales, attended for the special purpose.
