This monument is dedicated to the lasting memory of
THE UNITED EMPIRE LOYALISTS
who, after the Declaration of Independence, came into British North America from the seceded American colonies and who, with faith and fortitude, and under great pioneering difficulties, largely laid the foundations of this Canadian nation as an integral part of the British Empire.
Neither confiscation of their property, the pitiless persecution of their kinsmen in revolt, nor the galling chains of inprisonment could break their spirits, or divorce them from a loyalty almost without parallel.
No country ever had such founders --
No country in the world --
No, not since the days of Abraham. - Lady Tennyson
