Excerpt from Amelia Peabody Tileston: And Her Canteens for the Serbs Body Tileston and her work for the Serbians. I am giving a brief outline of her life, preceded by a sketch of the experiences of Serbia during the World War, drawn from various sources, and followed by selections from her letters from the Balkans from 1916 to 1920. It is meant to keep her in remembrance, and also the bravery, the sufi'erings, and the needs of the nation in which she was so deeply interested.
