Edmond-Louis DUBOIS-CRANCÉ (1747-1814) Conventionnel (Ardennes). L.A.S. "D.C.", Paris 17 ventose VIII (March 8, 1800), to his wife (née Marie-Marguerite Salmon); 4 pages in-4. Interesting letter on the news of the day and on Bonaparte. Since his arrival in Paris, he has not been able to see "any of the powers, the minister himself makes himself invisible. There is only talk of Bonaparte's departure for the army, and the return of the emigrants. Yesterday I found myself face to face with Charles Lameth at the Minister of Police. Everything that made the Constituante part of the minority of the nobility has already been recalled, and even before the consul's decree was known, these ladies were in our midst. I hope they will be well off, but they are highly regarded"... His efforts in favor of an abbot have been successful, but he now recommends discretion: "He ends with an anecdote about SIEYÈS and Bonaparte: "Some time ago, Scies told Bonaparte that he found it improper for him to occupy Louis 16's lodgings. That he could remember the 10th of August. If I had been Louis 16," said Bonaparte, "I would still be Louis 16, and if I had been a priest, I would still be one. 9785/952
