We were going to takethe one oclock train, but there was so much that was inter- 414 GERMANY, SWITZERLAND AND AUSTRIA esting to see and the Hotel is so comfortable and the coffeeso remarkably good that Clifford absolutely proposed stayinguntil the six oclock train. Just now we were taking coffeeand bread and butter (as we will get kein abend-essen)and sitting in the glass terrace overlooking the great threestory Roman gate and the boy playing the hose over thestreet, for the heat and dust are terrific, when a whole regi-ment of artillery came in and some of the officers came in torefresh and eat here. They are a splendid looking lot of menand very formal with each other. They were white with dust. J ] \ PORTA NIGRA, TRIER and Clifford and I were the same yesterday after driving toGravelotte—it is like around St. Louis. We spend to-night in Metz and take the fastest train toParis, which leaves at noon, and gets in at six p. m. I shallhave Mrs. Watson to go about with. I only hope this heatwill not continue, it seems unbearable after the cool air ofHohenstadt and the Vosges. I was delighted you had sucha comfortable trip home, but I am sure you and Sam havealready repented. How I wish you wxre here with yourcamera to take pictures of these wonderful things. I must stop.
