Stake attention in this memory
A bronze war memorial plaque, likely dedicated to members of the Terminal City Club in Vancouver, Canada, is displayed prominently on a light-colored, possibly marble or stone tiled wall. The plaque commemorates individuals who served and died in the Great War (1914-1918). The central inscription reads: "IN MEMORY OF MEMBERS OF THIS CLUB WHO FOUGHT AND DIED IN THE GREAT WAR FOR LIBERTY." Below this, a biblical quote is etched: "GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN THAN THIS, THAT A MAN LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIEND." The dates "1914-1918" are inscribed at the top center, and "TERMINAL CITY CLUB" is displayed on a banner across the plaque's middle section. Flanking the main inscription are two lists of names. The left panel, titled "FOR FREEDOM," includes: G. P. BOWIE, D. N. MOORE, O. C. SAWERS, H. J. HAFFNER, and J. C. HAY. The right panel, titled "FOR HONOUR," lists: J. M. A. D. MOWAT, M. L. GORDON, J. G. HARTNEY, D. E. MUNN, and L. R. WARN. Decorative elements include a laurel wreath at the top of the central panel and ornate scrolling patterns on the bronze frame. A collection of small, sculpted flags, including the Union Jack and what appears to be the Canadian Red Ensign, protrudes from the left side of the plaque, adding a multi-dimensional aspect to the memorial. The lighting suggests an indoor setting, possibly a club entrance or hall.
