tess you visited
in Surrey is a cousin of Hume's, I think, and the old nurse and her
husband live there. Hume was having Mother Susan nurse him when you met,
I expect. Hope you two may see each other some day in the United States
and laugh over that impression of yours, Miss Davis," Captain Castaigne
concluded, as he walked over to his wife's side.
At midnight Captain Castaigne and Eugenia went back to the chateau,
walking hand-in-hand like children through the woods. There was no
fighting these days in this particular portion of southern France and in
the peace of the night one could almost forget that the world was at
war.
"You will miss your friends when they return to their own country,
Eugenia," Captain Castaigne suggested.
Eugenia nodded. "Yes, they will be gone, I believe, in another month.
But we will go over ourselves some day, Henri, and perhaps you may learn
to care for my country as I do for yours."
"Yes, and think of the service I shall owe her for the work the American
Red Cross has done for France!" the young officer concluded, and in the
darkness lifted his cap for a moment.
"Whatever Lafayette did for you in the cause of freedom, your land has
now fully repaid."
