It turned out that I needed to use "while read line", like:

Yes.  If you hadn't discovered that by now, I was ready to suggest it.
  Except that you don't need to use "cat".  Nor do you need to quote
"${line}"

   while read line; do echo ${line};done < /tmp/testlog

is the one-liner.  Separate into multiple lines to taste, especially
if there is a lot of stuff bracketed by "do  . . . done".
