The Vicomtesse and I exchanged a look of understanding. Relief was plain on her face. It was she who answered. "We have met him by chance, Monsieur. He has just left for Terre aux Boeufs." "Terre aux Boeufs! What the dev I beg your pardon, Madame la Vicomtesse, but you give me something of a surprise.
Here they built a fort of squared chestnut logs, and when it was finished they cut a road of several leagues through the woods to Rivière aux Boeufs, now French Creek. At the farther end of this road they began another wooden fort and called it Fort Le Boeuf. Thence, when the water was high, they could descend French Creek to the Allegheny, and follow that stream to the main current of the Ohio.
Is there another conspiracy at Terre aux Boeufs, or does somebody live there who has never before lent Auguste money?" Madame la Vicomtesse laughed. Then she grew serious again. "You did not know where he had gone?" she said. "I did not even know he had gone," said Nick. "Citizen Lamarque and I were having a little game of piquet for vegetables. Eh, citizen?"

These very slow trains off the great lines should always be resorted to by the inquiring traveller, the Bommelzug as it is called in German, the train de boeufs in French. What can be seen from the windows of the flying Rapide? Here we might almost alight and pluck the wild flowers growing so temptingly on the embankment.
During the fighting in these sectors the French took 220 prisoners, seven officers, and eight machine guns. North of the Somme the Germans attacked from Les Boeufs to Bouchavesnes, evidently with the purpose of forestalling a new French offensive beyond Saillisel, which would endanger the left of the German line opposed to the British, by the menace of being turned on the south.
