Only One Testament in a Detachment

1 min read · Chapter 101 of 229

“Dear Sir, — Just a few lines to say I got your Testament quite safely. I was glad when I thought of the night I was in the Church of England Hut, and a comrade came to me and asked me if I had got a Testament. I said ‘No,’ and he gave me a card to Fend to you to get one. I shall treasure it through my everyday life, and in my spare moments I shall read it. When I showed it to the boys they all said they would like to have one also. I am sorry to say mine is the only Testament in our detachment. I promised the boys I would write to you for a parcel of them. —J.H.”
A Rifleman says: ―
“I had a Testament when I came out, but unfortunately it got lost in an attack we were making... I should like another.”
A Chaplain writes: ―
“The parcel of Testaments you kindly sent me a few weeks ago have now been distributed. I give out at the morning parade that I have them, and always get a large number of applications before night, especially by men about to leave for the Front. Would you kindly supply me with some more? I think it is one of the best services rendered to our brave fellows, and greatly appreciated by them.”

Everything we make is available for free because of a generous community of supporters.
