(SOULT family. TARN. TRAVEL to GENEVA.) Letter A.S. from the young Napoleon Hector SOULT DE DALMATIE (Paris 1802-1857) who was Military, Diplomat, Deputy of Tarn and Herault, addressed to his father Maréchal Duc de DALMATIE (SOULT), at ST AMANS LA BASTIDE by MAZAMET (TARN) (address + Postmark. 50 ANDELOT) - 9 August (between 1820 & 1828) 2pp in-8°. "We have just arrived, my dear Father, after having accomplished our great journey most happily. The weather favoured us for all our runs in the mountains... at the first ray of sunshine which allowed us to sail quietly on the beautiful lake of GENEVA, to admire the MONT-BLANC the King of the Mountains in all its splendour and to pass at last the black head place of horror and desolation. This race was the last we made between the rocks and the fir trees. GENEVA and its environs held us back two days, and a quick run brought us back to Rimaucourt..."
