- ↑ A note by Lucien Daudet explains: "On the night of the mobilization, the motor vehicle which was taking the three of us from Paris to La Roche was wrecked in a head on collision with another vehicle." Mme Daudet, in her journal about her family and the war of 1914-1919 (Paris, Fasquelle, 1920), p. 7, relates how, on Sunday 2 August 1914, she received a note written in pencil by her son Lucien saying: "Motor accident outside Artenay close to Orléans, Léon with a head wound; Robert hurt in his hand and face, wounds dressed and out of danger. Lucien uninjured." [PK]
