THUS ARE COMMEMORATED THE MANY MULTITUDES WHO, DURING THE GREAT WAR OF 1914 - 1918, GAVE THE MOST THAT MAN CAN GIVE - LIFE ITSELF. FOR GOD, FOR KING AND COUNTRY, FOR LOVED ONES HOME AND EMPIRE, FOR THE SACRED CAUSE OF JUSTICE AND THE FREEDOM OF THE WORLD. THEY BURIED HIM AMONG THE KINGS BECAUSE HE HAD DONE GOOD TOWARD GOD AND TOWARD HIS HOUSE.
