Inscription

On distant isles, on desert sands,
Beneath the sweeping tides,
They sleep their long untroubled sleep,
Their hard won rest abides.

They went so far to die so young,
Strong men who have not died,
For age is not measured in years,
When death is glorified.


This memorial erected 1927 by Lightfoot Brothers Mean Park.
T. E. Lighfoot, G. Lightfoot, J. Lightfoot.

Contractor H. Swayne Ballarat.

Unveiled by Brigadier Smith Good Friday 1927.
