Yellowed paper scroll commemorating the passing of LCol A.A. Miller while in service, held in a rectangular mahogany colour wood frame. The top of the scroll features a large image of the coat of arms of the United Kingdom with the royal cypher of “GVRI” (George V Rex et Imperator) at the top. Printed below the coat of arms is the text reading: “HE whom this scroll commemorates was numbered among those who, at the call of King and Country, left all that was dear to them, endured hardness, faced danger, and finally passed out of the sight of men by the path of duty and self-sacrifice, giving up their own lives that others might live in freedom. Let those who come after see to it that his name be not forgotten.   Maj. Armour Adamson Miller   Canadian Infantry Bn.” Note that at the bottom, his rank is printed as Major, though he would become rank of Lieutenant-Colonel, which likely happened after this document was printed or the maker of this document was not up to date with his change in rank. On the back of the frame are two triangle metal pieces for hanging and a folding leg for standing.

This commemorative scroll was given by the British government to families of soldiers who passed away during the war as part of a set of three items, with the other two being a message from the King, and a memorial plaque (nicknamed dead man’s penny).
