En 1904, le commandant Laperrine entreprit une grande tournée (à laquelle participait le Père de Foucauld) au sud d'In-Salah. Laperrine avait pour projet initial de pousser jusqu'à Tombouctou... Mais, le 16 avril 1904 à Timiawine, une colonne de méharistes soudanais dirigée par le capitaine Théveniaut s'opposa à ce que Laperrine et ses hommes continuent leur route plus au sud... Le capitaine Théveniaut ne faisait qu'exécuter les ordres de ses supérieurs. Dès 1903, ceux-ci avaient été prévenus et de cette tournée et de son but final et c'est en connaissance de cause qu'il fut demandé à cet officier de 《... s'y opposer par tous le moyens en son pouvoir 》("In 1904, Commander Laperrine undertook a major tour (in which Father de Foucauld took part) south of In-Salah. Laperrine's initial project was to push as far as Timbuktu... But, on April 16, 1904 in Timiawine, a column of Sudanese camels led by Captain Théveniaut opposed Laperrine and his men continuing their journey further south... Captain Théveniaut was only carrying out the orders of his superiors. As early as 1903, they had been warned of this tour and its final goal and it was knowingly that this officer was asked to "... oppose it by all means in his power"").
