This bronze plaque commemortaes the laying of the cornerstone and the construction of the Cornwall Armoury. 

The Cornwall Armoury was built between 1938 and 1939, and is associated with the expanding requirements of Canada’s militia between the First and Second World Wars. During the Second World War, it was the centre piece of an adjacent 35 acre basic training camp that trained an estimated 15,000 soldiers over a four year period (see photo 3).

Today, the Cornwall Armoury houses various units including the Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry Highlanders, the SD&G Cadet Corps, the Stormont Royal Canadian Sea Cadet Corps and Cornwall Cadet Squadron.  It is also used to host many community events.

This scroll was unveiled in memory of the soldiers of the 154th Battalion, Canadian Expeditionary Force who died in the First World War. 

The 154th Battalion was raised in the counties of Stormant, Dundas and Glengarry, near Cornwall Ontario. It embarked for England on 16 October 1916, arriving in the UK later that month. It was disbanded a few months later after its members were tranferred to other battalions as reinforcements. Despite being disbanded, surviving members of the original 154th Battalion produced this scroll to honour original members of the 154th who had died in the First World War.

While overseas, he also served as Medical Officer for the 2nd Royal Sussex Regiment and the 1st Battalion, The Black Watch.

This scroll was unveiled in memory of the members of the Church of the Good Shepherd who died as well as those who served during the Second World War.

Historical note: The Church of the Good Shepherd, in Cornwall ON,  was erected in 1886 as Mountain Memorial. A new Mountain Memorial brick church was built in 1893 on a lot just north of the original lot at the corner of Malborough and First streets and renamed the Church of the Good Shepherd. The church closed after 118 years and its artefacts moved to Trinity Anglican Church.
