I am indeed overwhelmed with writing, but I do not complain of having to write a little at your request to you, who have so often written to defend the just cause we support. I have just sent a note to Mr BARDOUX... He tells me that we are going to have a firm and skilful rector in the Gironde, which will not be too much. Because the least we can hope for, it seems to me, is to have academics who support the university. And that's not always the case...". + 2nd Letter A.S. from BORDEAUX August 12, 1877. To the Director of the Petite Gironde. He asks for corrections before printing his last letter, which is to appear in the newspaper. 1p in-8°
