ed, at the age of twenty six, to return to
France, and at his instance Mr. Marcou wrote
letters to various French officials to know
whether this naturalized American citizen
could visit France without danger of being
compelled to serve in the army The reply
was, that the name of the young man had

conscripts, and that having been naturalized
in the United States, he had ceased to be
Frenchman, and could not be required to per-
form military duty in France"
