    Memorial Window Description & History

    Stained Glass Window at Parkville Trinity College Anglican Chapel - Memorial Window Description & History

    The window was ordered by Judge Moule who offeredthe window to the College Council in 1916. He began negotiations with the English artist Karl Parsons, but Parsons was conscripted in 1916 and discussion apparently lapsed. London artist, Dudley Forsyth was expected to prepare a number of windows as memorials in Trinity's chapel but only the Miller and Jowett were completed before William Kerr-Morgan (1895-1967) took over the completion of First and Second World War stained glass. Although not recorded in the Brooks, Robinson & Co. job books, it is attributed to the firm by Caroline Miley in her book on Trinity's chapel. Further evidence of this being Kerr-mMorgan's workis provided by the full scale cartoon held in the State Library of Victoria's picture collection.

    Lance Corporal Humphrey Moule, law student and son of His Honour Judge William Henry Moule and Jessie Louisa Moule, enlisted on 7 September 1914, as a private in the Field Ambulance. He asked to be transferred to the Light Horse before leaving Australia for the Middle East. In June 1915 he was wounded, receiving a fractured arm, which Mrs. Moule, who was in Cairo at the time, reported to his father as 'slight' and Lance Corporal Moule soon returned to duty with his regiment. He was killed at Gaba Tepe on 6 August 1915, and was buried in Shell Green Cemetery on the Gallipoli Peninsula after a service by the Reverend G Robinson.
