The Woodstock Press, July 22, 1920.
T. W. Caldwell,
member for Carleton-Victoria, finding that there was a number of
war trophies consisting of field guns, machine guns, shells, etc.,
to be distributed among the various towns of Canada, made
application for a field gun for Woodstock, and, although the
supply was limited, he was fortunate enough to secure a field gun
for Woodstock, which will be very appropriate to go with the
splendid monument to be erected of the fallen heroes of Carleton
County, on the county lot in Woodstock.
