[Paul-Auguste TASCHEREAU DE FARGUES (1752-1832) juror of the Revolutionary Court, friend of Robespierre, arrested after the 9 thermidor, compromised in the conspiracies of the camp of Grenelle and then in that of Babeuf]. L.A.S. from his wife Caroline TASCHEREAU, 13 nivôse [III : January 2, 1795], to a Citizen Representative; 1 1/2 pages in-4. She has already addressed a petition to the Committee of General Security after the arrest of her husband, which made her ill; she waited until one o'clock in the morning "without knowing anything of the result, one can keep Taschereau for having been the friend of the shooter there was 1 year that he had not gone up to his house". The representatives Revel and Boudin gave him hope: "If I perish I will spend the night at the Committee. I would like him to hear me, he would see if I am worthy & my husband of your esteem. My husband is frozen in his room"... She hopes that the oppressed innocence and the true patriotism will be recognized...
