Boyau

We have no direct evidence how the embryo is formed, yet no one doubts but that it is brought about by the agency of the boyau, which is a cell containing grumous molecular matter. ❋ William Griffith (N/A)

Just as we neared the crest of the hill, at a notice bearing the legend, "Keep below," the whole party entered a deep "boyau" leading right up to the trenches in front, from which branched off various passages to the gun pits, or butts, as we used to call them. ❋ Various (N/A)

Arrangements for passage of men moving in opposite directions may be made by extending short spurs at the corners, enlarging the boyau at the bends, digging niches or passing points here and there, or constructing island traverses with the boyau running around on each side. ❋ Oliver Schoonmaker (N/A)

Bombing stations are placed near by to protect the guns and to clear the boyau of the enemy. ❋ Oliver Schoonmaker (N/A)

The boyau leading to the post should be zig-zagged. ❋ Oliver Schoonmaker (N/A)

Every boyau should be marked where it meets a trench with a sign indicating the place and trench. ❋ Oliver Schoonmaker (N/A)

We were walking along a country lane to a turning where a trench boyau began. ❋ Various (N/A)

Co. C: Detail will clear junction _Tremont_ trench and _Slum_ boyau at 5.40 a.m., ❋ Oliver Schoonmaker (N/A)

Sentry posts are dug at right angles to the boyau. ❋ Oliver Schoonmaker (N/A)

As well might they doubt the necessity of the application of the boyau to an ovule, (or the existence of the boyau itself,) because the derivation of the embryo cannot be proved. ❋ William Griffith (N/A)

At these points the boyau is left straight for a short distance in front. ❋ Oliver Schoonmaker (N/A)

Co. D: Detail will clear junction _Rams Horn_ boyau and ❋ Oliver Schoonmaker (N/A)

I shall be very anxious to know what your opinion is, particularly with regard to the tubes and all adhering filaments; the question now occupying botanists, being this, is the embryo derived directly from the boyau or is it derived from some parts of the ovulum? ❋ William Griffith (N/A)

The embryonary sac of Phaenogams does not always exist at the time of application of the boyau, and the appearance of the embryo is always posterior to this. ❋ William Griffith (N/A)

_Jacques Martin, soldat au 170e d'infanterie, grenadier d'élite, au cours des combats du 26 et du 27 novembre, 1916, a, par son mépris du danger et par son ardeur, assuré la progression dans un boyau défendu pas à pas par l'ennemi. ❋ Various (N/A)

However different a boyau may seem to many, yet when viewed in conjunction with Cycadeae, the graduation to the present case becomes natural, and even the resemblance may be perfect, because in Cycas the grains of pollen get into the nucleus bodily, although they would still seem to throw out short tails. ❋ William Griffith (N/A)

If this is inconvenient for movement along the boyau, individual emplacements must be made in the side wall for firing. ❋ Oliver Schoonmaker (N/A)

The other day he had been there, and had clambered up the oily clay where the boyau had caved in, and from the level of the ground had looked for an anxious minute or two at the tangle of trenches and pitted gangrened soil in the direction of the ❋ John Dos Passos (1933)

"We are quite at home here," said one of the French officers, leading the way through a boyau, or tunnel, to a row of underground dwellings which had been burrowed out of the earth below a high ridge overlooking the German positions opposite Perthes, Mesnil-lez - ❋ Philip Gibbs (1919)

This time the _boyau_ was very narrow, and writhed between its earthen walls like a dying snake. ❋ Unknown (1918)
