On May 16, 1920, a bronze tablet was unveiled honouring Wesley Methodist Church parishioners who gave their lives in the First World War. A fire destroyed the church at Dundas Street West and Ossington Avenue on the evening of 22 November 1957. The congregation did not rebuild.
Inscription
In Memory of the Heroic Dead
Wesley’s Fallen Heroes
1914-1918
“They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old,
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn;
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We shall remember them.
As the stars that shall be bright when we are dust,
Moving in marches upon the heavenly plain,
As the stars that are starry in the time of our darkness,
To the end, to the end, they remain.”
