i COMMISSION would inform the patriotic,
the philanthropic and Christian men and women
of the country, of its work and its wants
II cares for the body and the soul, as did Christ
when on earth. By its delegates, who go with
out pay and from love, hospital stores, homo
comforts and reading matter are given directly
to those who need them, together with such
personal ministrations and religious instruction
each case may require-and the Gospel is
preached at every opportunity.
In the hospitals, on the battle-helds, and in
the camps Of the strong and brave, the delegates
welcomed by surgeons, officers and men and
their labors have, in the Judgment of those
well-informed, saved thousands of lives, and
been blessed to the conversion of thousands of
souls, besides raising the morals of the army
and strengthening the links that bind the soldier
to his home.
Ii has the confidence of the Government and
all tho facilities from it that military exigencies
will allow.
Its affairs are managed by business men who
give their services Railroads and kilograms
are free to it; the Bible Society gives its publ a.
