Merrill Denison - Bon Echo Dedication, 1965

    We should be so grateful to Merrill Denison for donating the land to the People of Ontario! Now, instead of the park, there would probably be an expensive resort! I think that the park should rename some of its campgrounds and name them after Merrill Denison.

    The blue car is a Ford Cortina MK3 (1971/76)!!
    It is an "L" level with a 1300 or 1600 Kent inside.

    He was a very small man but was genuinely respected by the men who served under him including the Irish men many of whom served with him in India!

    Victoria Cross, VC - top left medal. Details at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frederick_Roberts,_1st_Earl_Roberts "He was awarded the Victoria Cross medal for actions on 2 January 1858 at Khudaganj. The citation reads: Lieutenant Roberts' gallantry has on every occasion been most marked. On following the retreating enemy on 2 January 1858, at Khodagunge, he saw in the distance two Sepoys going away with a standard. Lieutenant Roberts put spurs to his horse, and overtook them just as they were about to enter a village. They immediately turned round, and presented their muskets at him, and one of the men pulled the trigger, but fortunately the caps snapped, and the standard-bearer was cut down by this gallant young officer, and the standard taken possession of by him. He also, on the same day, cut down another Sepoy who was standing at bay, with musket and bayonet, keeping off a Sowar. Lieutenant Roberts rode to the assistance of the horseman, and, rushing at the Sepoy, with one blow of his sword cut him across the face, killing him on the spot.

    Roberts actually lived in Waterford for a while which might explain why his portrait is among the Poole collection! There's a plaque on a wall out the Dunmore Road giving details!
