A stained glass window entitled "Lens Aug. 1917" depicting a nurse with a wounded soldier and child. The Kingston crest is in the top curve of the window. A plaque below "The Gift of S.F. Kirkpatrick".
The stained glass window was designed and installed by Robert McCausland in 1920 - 1921, Canada's longest active stained glass firm. Brass plates beneath the window name the donor.
The design for this window was taken from the publication known as "Queen Mary's Gift Book," but changes were made in order to have the soldier represent "The Canadian Tommy" and the nurse "A Canadian Nurse".
2,002 Canadian nursing sisters served overseas, Lens was shell battered until it became a heap of ruins.
