SAURINE (Jean Baptiste Pierre) Eysus 1733 - Strasbourg 1813 - Député des LANDES à la Constituante de 1789 Évêque constitutionnel des LANDES, Conventionnel des LANDES, Député au Cinq-Cents, Évêque de STRASBOURG - Letter A.S. SAURINE as Bishop of STRASBOURG, April 17, 1810 - 1page in-4°: "You are wrong, My dear Citizen, to imagine that you could have disobliged me by your approaches to my unfaithful principal... My infidel has not yet been summoned by his adversaries in ROUEN; that's the fault of the lawyers... The Archbishop of BESANÇON did not attend the wedding, ... he was not one of the members of the Ecclesiastical Committee. He seems to have been in Paris only to spend a short time at court, and to see his good friends. He was staying with his compatriot Mgr DEFERMONT, Minister of State. My daily Vœux for a long time have been for our incomparable Souverain, who aims only at the true glory, prosperity and happiness of the Patrie, and that of all Peoples, by delivering them from the commercial Tyranny of the English. He will succeed, no matter what they do; though they may grow more enraged, and indulge more and more in their gross insults. I also wish you well. May circumstances become entirely favorable to you..."
