''''Courage — 'T/V  the  mysterious  soul  which  never  yields y

Galsworthy 

HIS  book  has  been  conceived,  executed  and  sent 
forth  as  a  tribute  to  those  "gentlemen  unafraid'* 
of  the  Bank  of  Montreal  who  deliberately  closed 
^  their  ledgers,  laid  aside  pen  and  pencil,  left  the 
^^  calm  routine  of  a  great  institution,  the  security 
of  a  well-ordered  business  life,  and  went  forth 
with  sublime  courage,  not  only  to  endure  the  dis- 
heartening and  glamour-dispelling  weeks  of  preliminary  training  that 
was  necessarily  the  portion  of  our  noble  volunteers,  but  to  face  the 
most  relentless  and  ingeniously  evil  foe  that  ever  menaced  civilization. 
For  more  than  one  hundred  years  the  Bank  of  Montreal  has  ex- 
panded without  weakening  in  the  process  of  expansion,  and  this 
successful  development  has  been  characterized  and  sustained  by  an 
individual  spirit  of  unselfish  devotion  and  a  subordination  of  personal 
ambition  that  have  long  since  become  traditional.  When  the  time  of 
national  trial  arrived  it  was  these  qualities,  united  with  a  fearless 
patriotism  and  a  hatred  of  evil,  that  sent,  as  if  inspired,fourteen  hundred 
and  nine  members  of  our  staff  to  fight  for  King  and  Empire. 


To-day  there  are  two  hundred  and  thirty  missing  from  the 
Roll  Call.  Some  lie  afar.  "Our  Dead"  is  proudly  graven  on  the  tablet 
placed  to  their  memory  in  our  great  hall.  Others, — war-worn,  broken,, 
recovered  and  recovering  from  grievous  wounds,  will  come  at  times  to 
look  at  this  enduring  tribute  to  their  brother  heroes,  but  this  book  is 
mainly  intended  to  be  a  sympathetic  record  for  those  who  are  not  able 
to  view  that  dignified  memorial  to  the  fallen  whom  they  loved  and  who 
loved  them;  it  is  for  the  sorrowing  whose  agony  of  grief  is  sacred,  and 
whose  proud  loneliness  will  end  only  "when  our  battalions  re-unite.""
