The First World War memorial window was erected by N.T. Lion, Toronto in 1926 in St. Matthew's Cathedral, the Anglican cathedral in Brandon, Manitoba. Bright red pennants fly from the staffs of the spear and the battle axe held by King David’s warriors. The buildings of Jerusalem can be seen in the background. A golden crown sits on David’s head as he raises his sword, as if offering it to the heavens.
