Description

The beautiful stone cross, of which the architectural proportions and lines evoked universal admiration, has been erected facing the main street, and almost aside the entrance of the parish church, and will ever stand as an ideal and simple symbol of the sacrifice of the lifeblood of many of her sons, who did not come back, and the sacrifice, too, alike of soldiers and sailors and nurses, who bear still the marks of long and valiant service, and their willingness to die to protect the land and the Empire they loved.
Leader (Orange, NSW), 4 March 1921.
