Copeland, George, Rev.

"It has been terribly cold here since last night as I suppose it has at home...the wind seemed to blow right through the paper wall, and there is absolutley no heat in these rooms when the doors are closed...."

"...We have made two trips to the camp, Bird and I, for Kendall is takiing a day off--and on one of them visited in the hospital. By luck I got into the tuberculosis ward...."

"...Yesterday was a hard day and I was almost too tired to stand. At night I took part in 7 services and preached 6 times. At the Signal Corps at 10 in the morning I preached to about 135 men...."

"...I was at the hospital in the morning where a wounded man told me a story that upset my stomach and I had to get out in the air...."

"...So I hope to be home on Thursday next to stay. And I'll be as glad as these soldiers to get home, even though this work is in many ways the most interesting I've ever done...."

"The night shirt came tonight and it was a blessing because I'm sure this old one was so dirty that it would have had cooties soon...."

"...I had a pretty busy day yesterday although I had only 4 services as compared to my usual 6 or 7. But things were upset in the house. A Methodist minister from Kentucky who came here to stay over night...was taken ill himself on Sat. night...."

"Keep your chin up and do come up--how about this weekend?...Please come before the tennis matches are over...."

Bishop's House (Newark, New Jersey) to the Recordiing Secretary, Domestic and Foreign Missionary Society of the Protestant Episcopal Church. "Millington is an attractive place, but I do not think they are able to give a living salary to Mr. Copeland...."

"I must get a short note, at least, off to you before the proposed censorship gets too strict. The war-clouds seem to be gathering, and I feel pretty sure that I shall soon be in Mexico...."
