Excerpt from In the Whirlpool of War
Our niece Nelly's husband, Emile Lecourt, returned from Attigny at half-past three, bathed in perspiration and greatly upset. It's all up we've got to go, he cried, sinking down on our doorstep. The village folk who saw him arrive came up to question him. They all refused to believe him, though the young fellow angrily protested that he spoke the truth, and swore that the Attigny mayor's secretary had acquainted him with the Official dispatch.

Excerpt from In the Whirlpool of War
On the July 1914 my husband and I, then living at Roche, 1 became positively convinced that the outbreak of war was imminent.
On the 30th, Captain Clenet, the author of that very illuminating pamphlet, The German Invasion through Southern Belgium called on us with his wife, and was astounded to hear that I had been informed, two days earlier, of the suspension of payment of the Rente. Until I told him of my part in this financial misadventure the Captain seemed assured that there was no likelihood of war with Germany, and took a sly pleasure in pooh-poohing all the arguments with which my husband Pierre met his optimism.
