CADZOW PARISH CHURCH/WAR MEMORIAL/WINDOW/The theme of the window/is based on the Beatitudes./The Lord, seated on the rainbow, has right hand raised in/benediction, symbolises the/Pure in Heart. His left hand/holds the book of judgement/open at Alpha & Omega./At his feet on the left side is/the Pelican, symbolic of sacrifice,/and on the right the Phoenix,/symbolic of resurrection./The Crusader represents the/Peacemakers. On his surcoat are/the arms of the Hamilton family,/and the oaks of Cadzow are/suggested in the oak leaves of/the border. 2. At the Crusader's feet the/Pascal Lamb symbolises the/Week. They that Mourn are/represented by Mary with the/Holy Child; at her feet lies the/Crown of Reward. Above and/below the names of the fallen are/the devices of the Navy, Army,/& Air Force, and that of the/town of Hamilton. Beneath the window the roll of honour/lies encased in Cadzow oak.// This window was designed and/executed by Douglas Hamilton of/Glasgow, and was unveiled by the/Rt. Hon. Tom Fraser M.P. , on the/30th October 1949./Rev T.F. Harkness Graham B.D./minister of the parish, officiated/at that service of dedication
