The Canso News' December 28, 1918 Edition Remembers the Community's Great War Soldiers

On December 28, 1918, the Canso News, the Nova Scotia community’s weekly newspaper, remembered the community’s First World War soldiers in its weekly edition. The cover page displayed the photographs of soldiers who died in service, while the second page contained an extensive list of the wounded.
