His studies with Las Cases were more persevering than successful, as will be seen from the following curious letter, written apparently in the watches of the night: it has been recently re-published by M. de Brotonne. "Since sixt week y learn the English and y do not any progress. Sixt week do fourty and two day.
If she goes the king will not be displeased at the use of his hunting equipage. Don't go to Havre, my dear," added the duke, paternally, "that would be giving yourself away. Come, here's a better plan, I think. Gaspard's chateau of Rosembray is on the other side of the forest of Brotonne; why not give him a hint to invite the whole party?" "He invite them?" said Eleonore.

On the side of the river facing Caudebec, the peninsula enclosed by the windings of the Seine includes the great forest of Brotonne, and all around the town, the steep hills that tumble picturesquely on every side, are richly clothed with woods, so that with its architectural delights within, and its setting of forest, river and hill, Caudebec well deserves the name it has won for itself in England as well as in France.
"Adolphe, take the left bank of the Seine." He unfolded a motoring-map on his knees and, tracing the route with his finger, showed Hortense that, if you draw a line from Le Havre, or rather from Quillebeuf, where the road crosses the Seine, to Dreux, where the stolen car was found, this line passes through Routot, a market-town lying west of the forest of Brotonne: "Now it was in the forest of Brotonne," he continued, "according to what I heard, that the second part of The Happy Princess was filmed.
Isn't Dalbreque dominated by the memory of it? The house, which is certainly the one in which Rose Andree spent the summer, was empty. He has shut her up there." "But the house, you told me, was in the Seine-inferieure." "Well, so are we! To the left of the river, the Eure and the forest of Brotonne; to the right, the Seine-inferieure.
The shades of night were falling from the tall trees when they entered the ancient forest of Brotonne, full of Roman remains and mediaeval relics. Renine knew the forest well and remembered that near a famous oak, known as the Wine-cask, there was a cave which must be the cave of the Happy Princess.
We saw you on the films the other evening; and circumstances led us to set out in search of you ... to Le Havre, where you were abducted on the day when you were to have left for America, and to the forest of Brotonne, where you were imprisoned." She protested eagerly, with a forced laugh: "What is all this? I have not been to Le Havre. I came straight here. Abducted? Imprisoned? What nonsense!"
She became suddenly uneasy and faltered: "The police.... There's nothing to fear from them.... They won't know...." "Where to find him? I succeeded, at all events. He's working as a woodcutter, in the forest of Brotonne." "Yes, but ... you ... that was an accident ... whereas the police...." The words left her lips with the greatest difficulty. Her voice was trembling.
The good uncle did not consider his own forces strong enough to make head against the joint troops of his brother and his nephew; he declined battle and withdrew to the forest of Brotonne, between Rouen and the sea. Theudebert and Childebert girdled the forest, and quietly awaited the night, confident of catching the beloved brother and uncle in the net.
