Paris, Sept. 7, 1817. 2 pages in-8°: "I had the honor of mandating a few days ago to Madame la Comtesse de KERGARIOU that you would surely have a leave of absence, Monsieur le Comte... Today, I spoke with Mr. LAINÉ, I found him very willing to authorize your absence in 10 or 12 days... I hope that we will have the pleasure of seeing you in Paris very soon...". Postscript: "Monseigneur has changed his march, and no longer goes to Rochefort, nor to La Rochelle, but to Bourbon-Vendée, Saumur, Angers, Le Mans and Alençon." (The Duke of DAMAS, Aide-de-Camp to Rochambeau during the American War of Independence, had participated in the attempted escape of the royal family in 1791 before emigrating himself.
