Paul Gerhardt Hiebert was a chemistry professor at the University of Manitoba who became a nationally recognized author and humorist. In the 1930s, he built a house on the site of this monument on Third Street SW in Carman, using it as a cottage until retirement, when it became his permanent home. The building, a municipally-designated heritage site (1991), was later demolished.
