41. Refugees in two wars. This old couple Mr. and Mme. Leclaire, who will celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary this year, are now refugees for the third time. Their first experience was in 1870 when they had to file before the invading Germans, who later destroyed their homes. They had the same experience in 1914 and last year, when the Boches were pushed back, they returned and were able to rebuild with the assistance of the ARC. This spring in the German advance they were forced once more to leave and their last backward glance showed their house in flames. They have five sons in the army and three others have been killed since the war started. They have cared for eleven grandchildren. This picture shows them on their arrival at the ARC canteen at the Gare du Nord in Paris July 1918 [date received]

The elder boy continued to be sick, so the ARC visiting nurse assisted in getting them into the country in lodgings at Rochevaille and the father obtained employment as card driver for a small factory.
