Don and Dunstan found that during their absence Chase Manning had been doing evacuation work—that is, conveying the wounded from the field hospital to a base hospital further away from the front. They learned, too, that he would be en repos[5] for the day.
"That's fine!" cried Don, as all sat around the breakfast table. "Why not let's pay the Château de Morancourt a visit this afternoon?"
"I'm with you," replied Chase.
"So am I," agreed Dunstan, heartily.
One of the drivers, "Tiny" Mason, began to laugh heartily. He had gained the appellation of "Tiny," so Bodkins explained to the uninformed, because his stature displaced only five feet three inches of atmosphere.
"I suppose you chaps are going to find out all about that missing stuff, eh?" he chuckled.
"If we do I'll let you know," laughed the art student.
Producing a pocket map, he showed his companions the location of the structure.
"Hello! It isn't very far from the Chemin de Mort," exclaimed Don, in surprise.
"Quite correct, my boy," said Dunstan.
