Note 109 — PART III USAGES OF WAR AS REGARDS NEUTRAL STATES
J. H. (John Hartman) Morgan translation
The passage of French troops through Prussian territory in October, 1805, was a contempt of Prussian neutrality.—The moment the Swiss Government permitted the Allies to march through its territory in the year 1814, it thereby renounced the rights of a neutral State.—In the Franco-Prussian War the Prussian Government complained of the behavior of Luxemburg in not stopping a passage en masse of fugitive French soldiers after the fall of Metz through the territory of the Grand Duchy.
