The Clinton News Record, 1930-10-02, Page 5Cairn in Memory. of Late General Sir. William
Otter. Unveiled on Sunday• Afternoon.
On Sunday afternoon, ina simple
- but impressive 'ceremony, the • cairn
erected, in memory of the late General
Sir William Dillon' Otter, a native son
of Ilarom County, was unveiled,
Maj. -General Fotheringham of: Brant-
ford,who was formerly associated
with General Otter, performing the
act of unveiling.
In spite of thefact that there was
a chili autun(n breese'blowing and a
hint of snow was in the air, a large
number gathered for the ceremony.
The cairn, a rough stone structure,
''with a red granite slab set in the side
inscribed with the name and rank of
the one whose life it commemorates,
and a red granite top, is set by the
side of the King's Highway No. 4, op-
pooite'the site where the old Otter
honest€ad stood, a little south of the
=
bridge. It: is so close to the.high,
way that people driving along it May
by slowing up a bit, read the inscrip-
tion. Mr. Hiram Hill of Clinton had
• the contract of building the cairn,
and he made job which looks as if
it might weather the storms of Cen-
turies.
{The Legion Comjrnands of Clinton,
Goderich, Seaforth and Exeter, in
charge of Capt. T. Morgan of Olin-
' ton, accompanied by County Military
officers, and officers of the Huron
Traet Historical Society, and headed
by the Kiltie Band, playing martial
• s airs, formed at the town hall, Clin-
ton, and marched out to the cairn.'

.Extract from the Ottawa Journal,
Tuesday, May 7, 1929:
Sir Wm. Otter, noted Canadian
Soldier dead. From rank of Private
attained highest militaryoffice here.
Held imnportantpost during war,
General Sir William Otter, K.C.B.,
who had a distinguished career, ov-
Col. Combe acted as master of cer-
emonies and called on Reeve N. W.
Trewartha ' of Clinton and Reeve
Keyes of Stanley township, who each
spoke briefly, expressing their pleas--
ure in this happy culmination of an_
. • effort to perpetuate the memory of
an eminent son of the locality. Ex. -
Mayor ,J. A. Andrew of Stratford;,
president of the.,Huron Tract Asso-
ciation, Mayor Moore of Stratford,
and Dr. S. Silcox, president of the
Stratford. Historical Society; • each
spoke briefly. Each speaker expres-
sed pleasure that a man such as Sir
-William should 'be remembered by the
community in which he was born.
Col. Combe remarked upon the
presence at the ceremony of Mr. John
Cuninghame, one of Clinton's most erseas in the South African War,
• esteemed citizens, who was a school- through the Northwest Rebellion in
mate of .Sir William's in their early
boyhood. "Probably Mr. Cuninghame
is the last one surviving who remem-
• hers Sir William in his boyhood,"
• said Col. Combe.
Maj: -General Fotheringham of To-
ronto was'the chief speaker and he
paid a high tribute to the late Gener-
al Otter. He was' a great man and a
great soldier, he said. He mentioned
the fact that Huron County was
famed for many things and congrat-
ulated the community upon the spirit
which prompted the erecting of this
memorial cairn. He recalled that an
ancient writer declared that the peo-
ple who failed to mark the great
deeds of those who had gone before
seldom performed acts worthy to be
remembered by posterity. He recal-
led his own association with General
Otter and remarked upon his fine
self-control, his care over details. Ile
was an officer who won and held the
esteem of the Amen whom he coin -
Mended: He spoke of some of Gen-
eral Otter's work,.in the Northwest,
in South Africa and in the late war,
Canada and in capacity of direction
of interment operations in Canada
during the Great War. He died in
Toronto after a lingering illness
May 5th, 1929.

IGen. Sir William Otter attained
the rank of Inspector General, the
highest military office in the Do-
minion, after beginning his career as
a private.
Served in Canada Through Great
War
Before the Great War, General Sir
William Otter, K.C.B., was admitted-
ly the most conspicuous example of
"from Private ,to General," among
the sons of Canada. When his na-
tive country entered the world con-
flict in 1914, Sir William was past
the allotted nark of three score
years and ten, his record as a sol-
dier was as full of honours 'as he was
of years. The soldier spirit was undi-
minished and the body strong. Al-
though he was on the retired list,
nobody was much surprised when he
offered his services to the country
when as a man long past military "in any capacity." The country ap-
age he served as director of inter-
ment operations in Canada and bow
nerfeetly he performed his difficult
'task. "Trotsky was for a time un-
der his care," remarked Major-Gen-
eral Fortheringham, "what a bles-
sing it would have been for Russia
and for the world if he could have
kept him safely. But be was an
American citizen and the United
States Government intervened on his
behalf and he had to be given up"
Major Fotheringham also brought
greetings from Gen. Ian Hamilton,
whom he had met in Toronto last
week, and from Col. Armstrong of
Military District No. 1.
At the conclusion of his address
Maj -General Fotheringham unveiled
the cairn and the Last Post was
sounded by Morgan Agnew and, af-
ter one minute's silence, the Reveille.
Associated with Col. Combe at the
unveiling were Dr, ShaW, who was a
friend of General Otter, and has been
keenly interested in the erection of
the cairn, Col. H. T. Rance, Major
M. D. McTaggart, Clinton, and Lt.
-Got, R. S. Hays,Seaforth.
After the ,ceremony the veterans
marched past the cairn, the salute
being taken by Maj: Gen.-Fothering-
ham. ,
William Billion Otter was born
• ream Clinton on
Dec: 3
,1848. the son
of Nottinghamshire parentage. Ile
was educated hi school here and at
Upper Canada College. In his early
days. he was quite prominent in la-
crosse, rowing, riding, and driving
circles. In 7.865 he married Marion
• Porter, slaughter of a, Toronto clergy-
man. The General was. an Anglican.
Lady Otter -died in 1014.

preciated the offer and the force
of character military'experienceand
ability which backed it up. But it
was decided that the upstanding
stripling of 71 years had already
"done his bit" so far as overseas
service was permissable by the age
limit.
Sir William was then offered the
post of Director of Interment Opern-
tions in Canada during the war. IJe
accepted. From 1914 to the close of
the war he did his duty in a situation.
that required much organization
work and produced many vexation
problems. It " was o..home post but
not a "cushy job." It entailed tact-
ful handling of some thousands of
interned enemy aliens, some inof-
fensive, but many openly antagonis-
tic and dangerous. They were scat-
tered about the country in various
camps, necessitating numerous coast

was kept employed until Sept. 1920',
