An Army Report from the Medical Record of Charles Herbert Shaw concerning his illness.

"Medical Report States;
That the early winter was exceptionally cold and wet, the man was then a private, and took his regular turn on guard. Got thoroughly chilled and soaked to the skin and could not remove his clothes while off guard in the crowded and unventilated guard room. Sleeping quarters equally crowded, badly ventilated and damp. Indeed circumstances better calculated to induce pulmonary trouble can scarcely be imagined."
