Description

The honour roll commemorates men and women of the parish who served in World War One. The honour roll was placed in the Soldiers Memorial Chapel which was dedicated in 1923.

At St. George's Church of England Malvern, last Sunday afternoon Archbishop Lees dedicated a sailor and soldiers' memorial chapel in memory of the men and women church workers who had served in the war. The tablet, which is of brass, is situated on the north side of the chancel. There was a crowded congregation. Included among those who attended were Lady Charlotte Rous, accompanied by Miss Currie. The Archbishop based his remarks on the text, "We passed through fire, and through water," which he applied to the ordeal of war and said that God had brought us through triumphantly.
Prahran Telegraph (Vic), 26 October 1923.
