The Richmond Cenotaph was erected after the First World War, to pay tribute to those who lost their lives in the conflict. Each November 11 a wreath is placed in remembrance for those who served and for those who gave the supreme sacrifice, that we in this great Country could enjoy peace.

An article that appeared in the Oxford Journal, October 25, 1925:

MONUMENT UNVEILED October 15, 1925 - A large number from this place attended the unveiling of the soldiers' monument at Wallace Grant on Tuesday afternoon. The citizens of Wallace Grant deserve credit for the Loyalty and Patriotism they have shown for those boys who made the supreme sacrifice for King and Country.
