Some were of the opinion that the French did not care much fol the Americans. A great many cannot dey that they were al some time or another taken into a French home and entertained and probably given a good home cooked meal. It was apparent that those french families who could do so were making apractice of it and ex- tending their favors to enlisted men as well as officers. 1t was suspected that they wanted the A. E.

Some French may have expressed themselves so but it was quite natural that they desired to re- turn to peace basis and have their places to themselves again after having been crowded for 4 years by allies from every where.
