FRENCH AND AMERICAN GRAVES ON THE ROAD TO THE PÈRE HILARION FOUNTAIN
About 800 yards from the cemetery the road branches, that on the left going to Fey-en-Haye. Take the road on the right, which soon leads to Prêtre Wood.
On the right, at the roadside, about 1,200 yards from the fork, are two graves: one of an American, the other of a French soldier.
Three hundred yards further on, in a ravine to the right of the road, are the fountain and house of Father Hilarion. All around are numerous trenches, shelters and military works of all kinds.
Père Hilarion fountain remained for some time between the opposing lines. Germans and French alike came there every day to draw water, and by a tacit understanding each side came at the definite hour. During this respite no shot was fired from the trenches.
