As to the Czarina, who, for OBSTETRIC and other reasons, of no moment to us, had stayed in Wesel all the time he was in France, she followed him now at two days' distance; not along with him, as Wilhelmina has it.
Personally, although I passed through many exciting experiences subsequently, and was often a victim of Prussian brutality, I regard that march from the station to the prison at Wesel as the most dangerous few minutes which I have ever encountered. We were promptly taken into an office and subjected to another inquisition.
For the slightest misdemeanour we were consigned to the cells for one, two, three, or more days.

Lafayette was arrested by an Austrian General, and delivered over to the King of Prussia, who ordered him to be confined in a prison at Wesel and at Magdeburg.
