"Have you any more to say for yourself?" he asked her. "My lord," she was beginning, "I came but five days before this into the country."
In the last hospital we visited, the young American Episcopal chaplain working with one of our own units asked the writer to accompany him one morning to help him in cheering up the patients, giving them Testaments, meeting their needs, and answering their doubts and difficulties.
