This collection contains a two-volume set of journals kept by Francis Harwood Evans during his service in World War I, along with materials he collected; a daily log kept by Alice Wescott Clough; and a copy of The Christian Index. Volume one of Evans's journals contains entries from his training in the United States Army, an announcement of his marriage to Clough, a Christmas card, a sketch of a soldier, a message from the French bank, Cox & Co., and a letter to Clough from Evans. Of special note in the first journal are the dedication in its front cover written by his mother; sketches on pages 70 and 63; and the end of the journal that contains motivational quotes, and records of letters and addresses. Volume two of Evans's journals contains entries from his days in active service, as well as letters from his mother, clippings, and notes. Of special note are sketches on pages four and 79; a copy of the content of a 1918 letter from General Walter E. Power; and coded location names on page 81. Also of note is the placement of the newspaper clipping: though Evans mentions in his journal that the article can be found between pages 70 and 71, it is between pages 178 and 179. Clough's day log contains short entries mostly about college life. Of special note are selections poetry and inspirational quotes, a sketch of a young boy, and records from the 1915-1916 school year of the names and hometowns of girls living in Crofton House, a residential dorm at Wellesley.
