In Washington in 1915, Roald Amundsen and Robert E. Peary pose in front of the National Geographic Society building. A group of members do likewise. Alexander Graham Bell attends the unveiling by Governor General Duke of Devonshire, on October 24, 1917, of the Bell Memorial in the Alexander Graham Bell Gardens in Brantford, Ontario. Devonshire inspects an honour guard made up of men of the 38th Regiment, Dufferin Rifles of Canada, commanded by Capt. G. Duncan. Long shots of the unveiling by the Governor General. John Hendrie, Lieutenant Governor of Ontario is there, as are Mayor Bowlby, W.F. Cockshutt and the Bell family. The Governor General then dedicates a home for World War I veterans. Bell presents Devonshire with a silver telephone. The Bell family pose in front of the Bell Homestead at Tutela Heights near Brantford. Bell and his wife pose in the garden of their former home.
