Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

St Andrew`s Kirk Memorial WindowPrint Page 
The stained glass window commemorates men from the parish who died in service or were killed in action in World War One.
The window has a figure of the young David clad in armour and holding a sword aloft in his left hand. Above him are four angels. A plaque is mounted on the wall next to the window.
The Premier (Mr. H. S. W. Lawson) unveiled a soldiers` memorial window at St. Andrew's Kirk, Sturt-street, on Sunday. He also unveiled a brass tablet, on which were inscribed the names of 62 men from the kirk who had enlisted and served in the war. The unveiling ceremonies were witnesses by a large congregation, which included the mayors and councillors of Bathurst and Sebastopol, the Chief Secretary (Mr. Baird), Senator Bolton (who acted as escort to the Premier), several military officers, and a number of returned soldiers. St. George Society was also represented.
Age (Melbourne), 5 July 1921.
