BARROIS, Adélaïde (Adèle) Jeanne Victoire, née LEVEQUE DE VI - Lot 359

BARROIS, Adélaïde (Adèle) Jeanne Victoire, née LEVEQUE DE VILMORIN. Letter addressed to her husband, the future General Pierre BARROIS (1774-1860), then Colonel of the 96th Infantry Regiment, DUPONT Division, corps of the Prince of PONTE-CORVO (Bernadotte) in the Grande Armée. Beautiful love letter, A.S., from Paris, January 10, 1807: "I am still, dear friend, in the same anxiety; I have no news... I hoped that perhaps you had not followed the rest of General BERNADOTTE's Corps, but she told me (Madame DUPONT) that the last news she had from the General was on the 16th and that you were advancing with all the rest... I have terrible dreams that still torment me when I am awake...".
