St. Thomas (Anglican) Church, Huron St., Toronto, Ontario. The octagonal
Baptistry (1917) houses a central baptismal font, and also serves as a World

knights, St. Michael the Archangel and St. George, and a wounded soldier in
a circa 1914-1918 military uniform standing among red poppies. Individually
inscribed wooden war memorial panels line the walls. Each panel includes
the name of a war casualty in gilt lettering with rank, unit and date of
