George Leslie Mackay




I was taking some photos of the Woodstock Court House, and found this statue. It is interesting on several levels. I had never heard of the man before.


There were many tiny figures in his luxuriant beard, relating to his life in Taiwan.

The water buffalo is my favourite.



And there were three inscriptions on the back of the bust!

This is my favourite, and a sentiment relevant to the season!
