[HISTORY] - DUMURIETZ DU PERRIER Charles-François (1739 - 1823) - Political Intrigue In European Exile - Autograph letter to the Count d’Antraigues (on the verso), June 12, 1810, 1 p., small folio (hole due to broken seal). “Pavia was wrong to leave; you should have sent me back his newspaper, which he is waiting for before leaving tomorrow, in despair and cursing the nation he could have served so well. I am far from pleased with the way my affair is turning out. Tomorrow I shall write a letter to the Marquis with a note for Buhler, all included in a letter to Mr. CANNING. This morning I had lunch with Sydmouth, and from there I went to GREY’s, where I found Tierney, both of them discouraged and dissatisfied; I think I frightened them, and I was right to do so. What do you say about FOUCHE’S DISMISSAL? It’s extraordinary. If he was to seek revenge, I believe he has plenty of resources for that. The famous CLARKE (mistress of the Duke of York) has just published a book entitled ”The Royal Brothers Rivals.” An extraordinary letter from Lord Folkstone has been extracted from it, which is causing quite a stir.” •⁠> This lot is located in and ships from Switzerland.
