A. century ago Verdhn, now the piv-
 ot ofl.the struggle on the western
 front, was virtually an English town.
 It was there that Napoleon, in 1903,
 interned most,of- the English tourists
 in France. They were arrested on
 the rupture of the treaty. of Amiens
 as reprisal for the seizure of French
 ships in British ports. From 1903
 until 1914, when the allies entered
 Paris, thousands of British tourists lived in compulsory exile in France.
 Many were men and women of wealth and title. They had taken their 2ami .ljes, their carriages and servants with them to France and were following tfle' grand tcGr" when .zthey were caught By; the resumption of hust;li- ties. verdun became for the time be- ing thoroughly English-there were English shops in every street, English clubs, including jockey club, and there were regular race meetings. Thel interned Englishmen had their own church, and it was one of the past times of the French to watch the ex-l iles leaving the edifice after servicesl on Sunday mornings.
