Description
A place, not a person: Cancello, a railway station north-east of Naples on the line to Caserta and Rome. The first section of the Rome–Cassino–Naples railway, Naples–Cancello–Caserta, opened on 20 December 1843, and a branch ran from Cancello to Nola from 1846 (Wikipedia, «Rome–Cassino–Naples railway»). This file is misfiled under people/; move to places/ is pending (OPEN-ITEMS B-40).On 12 February 1877 Marie and her mother board Larderel's train at Naples on the pretext of fetching her aunt, supposedly stranded at Cancello (068.1378); the express does not stop there (068.1402) and they get off further on to take a train back to Naples (068.1436). «Cancello» becomes her shorthand for the episode: «s'il n'y avait pas eu de voyage à Cancello» (068.1499), «A Cancello, à Monaco, au bal masqué» (075.0497), «l'aventure de Cancello» (074.0179).
