    Glenbow Archives (M-742-7) Harold McGill's First World War letters, January 8-December 6, 1917 France, Jan 8, 1917. Dear Miss Griffis;- A few minutes ago I was standing in my dugout with my back to the fire thinking very hard things of you, I really was. I was just about to sit down and send you a red hot letter in spite of the chilly atmosphere of the dugout, for it must be nearly a month since you wrote to me previous to your letter just received. As I remarked I was just making your ears burn when an orderly came in with your very nice and flattering letter. Of course we all like a little flattery and yours was so nicely given that I could not feel otherwise that pleased. Many thanks for your congratulations. I am afraid the people at home attach too much importance to these decorations. Sometimes they are awarded to the deserving ones and sometimes ------ . Gen. Byng our corps commander held a battalion inspection the day after Christmas and presented the ribbons to those awarded decorations. Just at present we are in support trenches but it will soon come our turn for the front line again. The weather is atrocious, cold with high wind and rain nearly every day. We had a much better Christmas this season than last. Fortunately we were out of the trenches in reserve and billeted in huts. The weather was fairly well behaved although we had some rain. All the men had a good Christmas dinner including turkey, plum pudding, beer, nuts, candy, etc.

(National Archives of Canada (NAC) / PA-66815) Written by Janice Summerby © Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada, represented by the Minister of Veterans Affairs, 2005. Cat. No. V32-56/2005 ISBN 0-662-68750-7 Printed in Canada Native Soldiers – Foreign Battlefields Generations of Canadians have served our country and the world during times of war, military conflict and peace. Through their courage and sacrifice, these men and women have helped to ensure that we live in freedom and peace, while also fostering freedom and peace around the world. The Canada Remembers Program promotes a greater understanding of these Canadians’ efforts and honours the sacrifices and achievements of those who have served and those who supported our country on the home front. The program engages Canadians through the following elements: national and international ceremonies and events including Veterans’ Week activities, youth learning opportunities, educational and public information materials (including online learning), the maintenance of international and national Government of Canada memorials and cemeteries (including 13 First World War battlefield memorials in France and Belgium), and the provision of funeral and burial services. Canada’s involvement in the First and Second World Wars, the Korean War, and Canada’s efforts during military operations and peace efforts has always been fuelled by a commitment to protect the rights of others and to foster peace and freedom.

  • History 5 - Fire in the Medical Buildings to Selye
    This chapter is part of a record of the history of the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology at McGill University written by Emeritus Professor, Dr. Gary Bennett, and completed in 2016. The entire history can be accessed at www.mcgill.ca/anatomy/about-us/history/written-history. History 5 - Fire in the Medical Buildings to Selye Fire in the Medical Buildings (1907) At the beginning of the 20th century, the infrastructure of McGill University become very impressive. Thanks to generous benefactors such as MacDonald, Molson and Lord Strathcona (now the University Chancellor), several new buildings had been constructed. In addition to the Arts Building and Dawson Hall, at the top of University Drive, there was the magnificent Redpath Museum to the west, and beyond this the new Redpath Library. To the east were the new Engineering, Chemistry and Physics Buildings. North of these was the new, greatly expanded, Medical Building, and finally, up the hill was the glorious new Royal Victoria Hospital Frost 2:4. In 1907, however, disaster struck! A fire of unknown origin destroyed much of the precious new Medical Building Hanaway 2: 64-66. The central portion was completely gutted and its roof and cupolas collapsed. The original lower portion was also damaged beyond repair. Only the northern-most Molson Extension survived to be reutilized. The Anatomy museum was completely destroyed, along with all the specimens that Shepherd had collected over 30 years! The pathology museum also suffered major losses, but most of the Osler Collection, including the wonderful Holmes heart, was saved by the heroic efforts of Maude Abbott and the medical students.
