The framed artistic paper honour roll commemorates those connected with the Presbyterian Church who served in World War One.  The roll lists five names.

A very large congreration attended the Hagley Presbyterian Church on the evening of the 20th, when a roll of honour was unveiled, containing the names of those who had gone to the front from the church. The Rev. D. A. McDougall preanched the service from the text "Fight the Good Fight of Faith." The present fight was a good fight; one that they could fight with a good heart. They believed that their hosts were the hosts of God, and they should never forget in their prayers the brave men who represented them.
