This is the statue of Major General The Honourable Sir William Glasgow, with his companion... The statue was erected in recognition of the work he did in serving his country as a military leader in the battlefields of South Africa, Gallipoli and France, and later serving as politician in the Australian Senate representing Queensland. He held two ministerial portfolios ("Defence" and "Home and Territories"). In December 1939 he was appointed first High Commissioner for Australia in Canada and also served as director in a number of companies.
