Troyes。) Brumaire 27; year II。  Incarceration of various suspects;

among others of 〃Lerouge; former lawyer; under suspicion of having

constantly and obstinately refused revolutionary offices。〃 Also; a

person named Corps; for 〃having refused the presidency of the district

tribunal at the time of its organization; under the pretext of

consulting the Chambre des Comptes; also for being the friend of

assumed an imposing character。〃

Guérard; lawyer; appointed judge at Cambrai; by the Cambrai

Revolutionary committee。) … Ibid。; 54。  (Declaration by Lemerre;

appointed juryman without his knowledge; in the Cambrai court。) 〃What

was my surprise; I; who never was on a jury in my life! The summons

was brought to me at a quarter to eleven (à onze heur moin un car …

specimen of the orthography) and I had to go at eleven without having

time to say good…by to my family。〃



'68' Report by Courtois on the papers found in Robespierre's domicile;

Dr?me; Germinal 20; year II。) 〃You know the dearth of subjects here 。

。  。       Give me the names of a dozen outspoken republicans 。  。  。

。  If you cannot find them in this department (Vaucluse) hunt for them

either in the Dr?me or the Isère; or in any other。  I should like

those adapted to a revolutionary tribunal。  I should even like; in

case of necessity; to have some that are qualified to act as national

agents。〃

an ultra Jacobin; he was brought before the revolutionary Tribunal as

a moderate; in Vent?se; year II。  Having survived (the Revolution) he

became under the Empire a general commissary of Police at Brest。

Almost all of them are veritable Jacobins; absolutist at bottom; and

they became excellent despotic tools。

24; year II。): 〃A delegate of Dartigoyte goes to l'Isle and; in the

popular club; wants the curé of the place to get rid of his priestly

attributes。  The man answers; so they tell me; that he would

cheerfully abstain from his duties; but that; if; in addition to this;

they used force he would appeal to the convention; which had no idea

of interfering with freedom of opinion。  'Very well;' replied

Dartigoyte emissary; 'I appeal to a gendarme;' and he at once ordered

his arrest。〃

sacerdotal fanaticism。〃 … Archives des Affaires étrangères; vol。332。

(Letter of Desgranges; Bordeaux; Brumaire 15; year II。) The

lot; not set out on the expedition to Lyons; but; even of those who

drafted。〃

the club; they nevertheless alarmed the sans…culottes。。  。  。
