William "Billy" Bishop was born on February 8, 1894 in Owen Sound, Ontario. At
the outbreak of the first World War, Bishop was a cadet at the Royal Military
College in Kingston and eventually enlisted with the 9th Mississauga
Horse, Canadian Expedition Force, on September 30, 1914. He later
transferred to the Royal Flying Corps and would receive many
decorations. He was the first Canadian Airman to be awarded the
Victoria Cross for his actions during an early morning attack on
an enemy airfield near Cambrai, France on June 2, 1917. Flying
a solo mission behind enemy lines, and against all odds, Bishop
destroyed seven aircrafts stationed at an enemy aerodrome. By
the end of the first World War, Bishop had a score of 72 aces
which made him the British Empire's second highest scoring ace.

During World War II, Bishop was assigned Air marshall with
the Royal Canadian Air Force and assisted with recruiting. After
several years of ill health, Bishop died on September 11, 1956 in
Palm Beach, Florida and was laid to rest at Greenwood Cemetery in
Owen Sound, Ontario.

William « Bishop » est né le 8 février 1894 à Owen Sound, Ontario. Lorsque
la Première Guerre mondiale éclata, Bishop était élève-officier au Collège
militaire royal de kingston. Le 30 septembre 1914, il se joignit au 9th
Mississauga Horse du Corps expéditionnaire canadien, passé par
la suite au Royal Flying Corps, il allait y recevoir de nombreuses
décorations. Il fut le premier aviateur canadien à se voir décerner
la Croix de Victoria, qu`il reçut pour les gestes qu`il posa au cours
d`une attawue menée le 2 juin 1917 tôt le matin sur un terrain
d`aviation ennemi, près de Cambrai, en France. Effectuant une
mission en solitaire derrière les lignes ennemies alors que tout
était contre lui, Bishop détruisit sept avions stationnés sur un
aérodrome. À la fin de la Première Guerre mondiale, Bishop
comptait 72 victoires répertoriées, arrivant au deuxième rang
des as de l`Empire britannique.

Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, Bishop fut maréchal de
l`air dans l`Aviation royale du Canada et contribua au recrutement.
Il mourut le 11 septembre 1956 à palm Beach (Floride), après avoir
lutté contre la maladie pendant plusieurs années. Il repose au cimetière
Greenwood d`Owen Sound (Ontario)

The Pakenham Cenotaph was erected in memory of the men of Pakenham Village and Township who paid the supreme sacrifice for our freedom. The Royal Canadian Legion Branch #240 conducts a Remembrance Ceremony at this site annually on November 11.

The Celtic cross design would have been symbolic to the many Irish settlers in the area. The Pakenham Horticultural Society maintains seasonal plantings here and around the village.

The Volunteer was sculpted by R. Tait McKenzie and dedicated on 11 September 1923. It was constructed in memory of the men of Almonte who fell in the First World War. The memorial was requested by Alexander Rosamond in a letter he wrote to his family in July 1916. He was a lieutenant in the Princess Patricia Canadian Light Infantry and if he did not return, he hoped a memorial could be built in a central place in Almonte "to the men of Almonte who fell for freedom."

Lieutenant Alex Rosamond was killed in action at Courcelette during the Battle of the Somme on 15 September 1916. His widow asked Dr. Robert Tait McKenzie, a former local, to create the memorial. Dr. McKenzie, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, returned after an absence of nearly 40 years to construct this monument. Most of the work was done at the home of Mrs. Alex Rosamond in the garage at Pinehurst on Union Street. Mrs. Rosamond wanted the memorial to have a likeness to her late husband and the statue was based on photographs of him. The finished work looked so much like her late husband that she had it changed. She also left $1000.00 for the memorial's upkeep.

It is said that "The Volunteer" recalls the spirit of adventure of Dr. McKenzie's own early days in Almonte. This poem called "The Volunteer" was written by Ethel McKenzie, Dr. McKenzie's wife.

He watches - in a little northern town,
Through winter cold and parching summer heat,
Where quiet folk go simply up and down,
O'er stony bridge and narrow crooked street.
He guards - alone - alert, with clenched hand,
In readiness with his young manhood's might,
To spring to action at a word's command,
Uphold his honour and defend his right.
He watches - while the children leave their play.
To lay their garlands clustered at his feet,
Zinnias and asters from home gardens gay,
In little hands held close and warm and sweet.
He smiles - he leans - and every winsome maid
Feels in her heart this joyous chivalry,
And lads look starry - eyed and unafraid
To grow to manhood strong and brave as he.
He watches. Oh, ye men with him who fell!
Mighty of valour, bold, unflinching free!
Here, in this place, your spirits seem to dwell,
Drawn to the home of your mortality.
He waits! Nor shall his vigil be in vain,
Men like to him shall ever pay the price;
Shun all dishonour, scorn the thought of pain,
And make the great immortal sacrifice!

Additions were later made for the Second World War, Korean War and Peacekeeping. The memorial was refurbished in 1967.
