Excerpt from A Village in Picardy
The history and the work of the Smith Col lege Relief Unit in the Somme is known wher ever reconstruction work in France is spoken of This brief account does not purport to give anything but a small cross-section, the picture of but one of the villages in our care. It is told in the first person to make the tell ing easier. As I have said, of all our villages, Canizy was the most beloved. All the Unit had a share in it.
