« Du plus loin qu’il me souvienne, c’est-à-dire de l’âge de trois ans, nous habitions, mon père, ma mère et moi, un petit château nommé les Fossés, situé sur les limites des départements de l’Aisne et de l’Oise, entre Haramont et Longpré. »
("As far back as I remember, that is to say from the age of three years, we lived, my father, my mother and me, in a small château called les Fossés, situated on the border of the départements of l’Aisne and l’Oise, between Haramont and Longpré.")
