Lest We Forget Part 2


Harry Macdonough (1871-1931): "God Be With You" 1902

You are listening to an original recording from 1902 featuring one of Canada's very first recording artists, Harry Macdonough and the Haydn Quartet, singing "God Be With You Till We Meet Again," a sentiment shared by Canadians as they saw their boys off at the dock, and later, as they remembered those who never came back.

(You can hear these earliest Canadian recordings on our program's soundtrack. Details on our Music Page)

             This site lists information about Canadians who died during the war....

"We are the Dead...
Short days ago we lived, saw sunset glow, 
         And now we lie in ... Africa..."
