The Raymond Cenotaph arrived in Raymond exactly one week after Armistice Day, November 11th, 1930. The Cenotaph was constructed in memory of the men who lost their lives while serving on active duty during the First World War. At a later time a tribute for the men who lost their lives in the Second World War were also added. A leading Italian sculptor created the statue of a soldier in solemn repose. The Memorial was originally scheduled for unveiling on Armistice Day, November 11th, 1930. The sculptor was on hand to set the statue on the base for unveiling. unfortunately, due to the statues late arrival from Italy, and bad weather conditions, the unveiling did not occur until Dominion Day, 1931. In May of 1962, almost thirty years later, another plaque was added to the north side of the Cenotaph. The plaque was placed in position by members of the Raymond branch of the Royal Canadian Legion. Funds for the plaque were raised by Legion members during the winter months at bingo games and whist parties, which were arranged for the public as well as the Legion members. The plaques matches the one which hangs on the east side of the memorial and marks the memory of the men who lost their lives while serving on active duty during the Second World War.

This stained glass window honours Private Albert Mountain Horse who died on November 19, 1915, from injuries received at the Battle of St. Julien, France.

Mountain Horse was born on December 25, 1892, on the Kainai Blood Reserve in southern Alberta to Mountain Horse and Sikski. According to tribal custom, a medicine woman proclaimed his arrival and announced his name, Kukutosi-poota (Flying Star). She explained that many shooting stars had been visible during the night. At the age of seven he was baptized Albert and enrolled at St. Paul’s Residential School where his traditional braids were cut off. When he was old enough, Mountain Horse joined the Cadet Corps and later attended military school in Calgary.

At the outbreak of the First World War he was a commissioned officer in the Canadian Militia with the rank of lieutenant in the 23rd Alberta Rangers and was working as a cadet instructor. Mountain Horse volunteered with the No. 14 Company, Canadian Army Service Corps in order to deploy sooner. He then proceeded to Valcartier, Quebec, as part of the first contingent of the Canadian Expeditionary Force.

His first action was at Ypres, Belgium, in April 1915 where he was gassed by the Germans. Mountain Horse came through the battle without serious injury, but was gassed two more times in 1915. He was hospitalized and declared unfit for active duty. He was sent back to Canada, but his lungs were so weakened that tuberculosis set in and he died only one day after landing at Quebec.

After Albert's death his brothers Joe and Mike Mountain Horse enlisted and were sent overseas. Joe was wounded in 1917 in the first engagement at Arras, France, and Mike in the second battle of Cambrai in 1918. Both recovered. In 1939, Mike would again enlist for overseas duty.
