Notice:

The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.

The St. Peter's Anglican Church First World War Organ was donated by the congregation in memory of parishioners who gave their lives in war. It was unveiled on January 4, 1920, along with a First World War Tablet. The organ was dedicated by His Lordship Bishop Sweeny and used for the first time this day.

Organist Dr. Norman Anderson's recital included Sonata in D minor, Mailly; O, Salutaris, Annon, a manuscript found amid ruins of the organ in St. Martin's Cathedral, Ypres, Belgium, 1915, by a member of Dr. Anderson's choir.
