traveling abroad
Traveling in a foreign country. While the usual meaning of the expression signifies travel in a foreign country, and an officer is understood to be traveling "abroad" when he goes to a foreign port or place under orders to proceed to that place, or from a foreign port to a home port, yet he is not so traveling when going from one place to another in the United States by the shortest route although it may take him into a foreign country such as Canada, or upon the high seas. United States v Hutchins, 151 US 542, 38 L Ed 264, 14 S Ct 421.
