[The Great War As I Saw It by Frederick George Scott]@TWC D-Link bookThe Great War As I Saw It CHAPTER X 5/24
It was often very difficult, owing to the numbers of men one was meeting, and the many changes that were continually taking place, to keep track of the lives of individuals.
The revelations of the religious experiences (p.
123) and the needs of the human soul, which came over and over again from conversations with men, were always of the greatest help to a chaplain, and made him feel that, in spite of many discouragements and much indifference, there was always some soul asking for spiritual help. The Headquarters of our Division were now at a place called Hooggraaf. It consisted of a few small houses and a large school kept by nuns. Huts were run up for the officers and, at a little distance down the road, a home was built for "C" mess.
At one side were some Armstrong canvas huts, one of which was mine.
It was a pleasant place, and being back from the road was free from dust.
