After passing through Rambucourt, N. 58 leads to Beaumont (in ruins).

Notice the shelters in the houses. The curious church suffered badly (photo, p. [74]).



ROMANESQUE CHURCH OF SEICHEPREY

Four hundred yards beyond Beaumont, leave the National road and take the Seicheprey road on the left.

Trenches, shelters and gun emplacements are met with, especially in a hollow on the left. Seicheprey is next reached.

This village was the scene of one of the first successes of the American Army. The Germans had taken it by surprise in April, 1918, and had kept it for some time, when it was retaken by the 26th (New England) Division.
