DEDICATION.

TO HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS THE DUKE OF YORK.

SIR,

WITH the design of serving an amiable and worthy man, I have availed myself of your Royal Highness's permission to dedicate to you the translation of a work, which, as a faithful narrative of events, wants no additional comment to make it interesting. A detail of facts, in which your Royal Highness, in behalf of your country, has been so honourably engaged, may not prove unwelcome in aid of recollection; and a detail of facts, built on the experimental horrors of popular power, and which, proceeding from the wildness of theory to the madness of practice, has swept away every vestige of civil polity, and would soon leave neither law nor religion in the world, cannot, either in point of instruction or warning, be unreasonably laid before my fellow-citizens at large.

Under the sanction, therefore, Sir, of your illustrious name, I willingly commit to them this memorial. And if an innocent victim of oppression should thus derive a small, though painful, subsistence from a plain and publick (sic) recital of his country's crimes, I shall be abundantly repaid for the little share I may have had in bringing it into notice; and by the opportunity it affords me of subscribing myself

Your ever grateful and devoted humble servant,

FRANCIS RANDOLPH.

PREFACE

THE following sheets contain a journal of principal events of the French Revolution. The best authorities have been resorted to, and the facts are related without any comment. The reader will find a faithful outline of an interesting and momentous period of history, and will see how naturally each error produced its corresponding misfortune.

Various causes contributed to effect a revolution in the minds of Frenchmen, and led the way to a revolution in the state. The arbitrary nature of the government had been long submitted to, and perhaps would have continued so much longer, if France had not taken part in the American war.

The perfidious policy of VERGENNES, who, with a view of humbling the pride of England, assisted the subject in arms against his Sovereign, soon imported into his own nation the seeds of liberty, which it had helped to cultivate in a country of rebellion; and the crown of France, as I once heard it emphatically observed, was lost in the plains of America. The soldier returned to Europe with new doctrines instead of new discipline, and the army in general soon grew dissatisfied with the Monarch, on account of unusual, and, as they thought, ignominious rigours which were introduced into it from the military school of Germany. The King also, from a necessity of retrenchment, had induced his ministers to adopt some mistaken measures of economy respecting the troops, and thus increased the odium which pride had fostered, and by diminishing the splendour of the crown, stripped it of its security and protection.

To this was added the wanton profusion of the Court in other expenses, and the external parade and brilliancy, which, if they impoverish, often dazzle and gratify the people, was exchanged for familiar entertainments, which gave rise to frequent jealousies among the nobles, and tended to lower that sense of awe and respect for royalty among the people, which in monarchies it is of the utmost importance to preserve.

At this time, also, philosophical discussion had reached its pinnacle of boldness. Infidelity had woven the web of discord in the human mind, which was now ripe for experiment, and ROUSSEAU and VOLTAIRE were the favourite authors.

Previous to the year 1789, from the extreme disorder of the finances, it became necessary to raise money by extraordinary taxes, which the common powers of the parliament were deemed insufficient to authorize; and afraid, in the present temper of the people, to impose upon them unusual burthens, ministers looked with solicitude for some other sanctions.

Monsieur DE CALONNE was unwilling to adopt so dangerous an expedient as that of assembling the states-general; [Footnote: An Assembly consisting of deputies from the three orders of citizens in France, namely, the clergy, the nobility, and the tiers-etat; which last included every French citizen who was not of the clergy or nobility.] he therefore adopted the expedient of summoning an assembly of notables, or eminent persons, chosen by the King from the different parts of the kingdom.

This assembly did not prove so favourable to the measures of the minister as he expected: Monsieur DE CALONNE was displaced, and the assembly was soon after dissolved, having declared itself incompetent to decide on the taxes proposed.

The King then commanded the parliament of Paris to register his edicts for successive loans to the government; but his commands were rejected. [Footnote: Chiefly, as it was supposed, through the influence of the Duke of Orleans.]

In the meantime, that spirit of discussing philosophical subjects, which we have before mentioned, now fixed itself on politics. The people exclaimed against the weight of taxes, and the extravagance of courtiers; they complained of peculiar exemptions from the general burthens, and of grievances which arose from lettres-de -cachet, and other despotic powers of the government.

The King, desirous of yielding to the wishes of the people, recalled Monsieur NECKAR to the administration, and in conformity to his advice, his Majesty declared his resolution of convening the states-general. But in order to regulate all matters relative to the meeting of this important assembly, it was resolved to convoke the notables a second time. Among these, a diversity of opinion appeared respecting the comparative number of deputies to be sent by the Commons, and the two other orders; the cardinal point on which the whole success of the revolution eventually turned. [Footnote: The last assembly of the states-general, which had been held in France in 1614, was composed of 140 deputies from the order of the clergy, among whom were five cardinals, seven archbishops, and 47 bishops; 132, representatives of the nobility; and 192 deputies from the commons. The Cardinal de JOYEUSE was president of the clergy; the Baron SENECEY of the nobility; and the president of the commons was ROBERT MIRON, Prêvot-de-Marchands, (an officer similar to that of mayor of Paris.)] All the classes into which the notables were divided, decided for an equality of deputies, except those in which MONSIEUR and the Duke of ORLEANS presided.

In these, it was agreed that the representatives of the commons should be equal in number to those of the other two states. The ministry were of opinion that this double representation was adviseable (sic), and persuaded themselves that, through their weight and influence they should be able to prevent any mischief to be apprehended from this preponderance of the tiers-etat. By their advice, the King issued an ordinance in January 1789, throughout the whole kingdom, commanding the people to assemble in their bailiwicks, and to nominate deputies to represent them in the states-general; viz. 300 for the clergy, 300 for the nobility, and 600 for the commons.

HISTORICAL EPOCHS OF THE FRENCH REVOLUTION.

   1787.
   March.          THE Assembly of Notables first convened under the
                     ministry of Mons. de Calonne, comptroller-general
                     of the finances.
   1788.
   August.         Mons.  Necker replaced at the head of the finances
                     on the dismission (sic) of Mons. de Calonne; and
                     Mons. de Lomenie, archbishop of Toulouse, made
                     prime minister.
   Nov.            Mons. Necker persuades the King to call the
                     Notables together a second time.

   January.        Letters issued in the name of the King for an
                     assembly of the States-general.  The clergy to
                     depute 300 representatives, the nobility the like
                     number, and the commons 600.

   June       17.  The chamber of the Tiers-Etat (commons) declares
                     itself a national assembly.
                19.  The Tiers-Etat takes the famous oath, known by the
                     "serment au Jeu de Paume," not to separate until
                     the constitution should be established.
                23.  The King goes in person to the assembly—but his
                     presence, far from intimidating the members,
                     renders them so intractable that from this epoch
                     may be dated the first attacks upon the royal
                     authority.
                24.  Forty-eight of the nobles, with the Duke of Orleans
                     at their head, unite with the tiers-etat (third
                     estate, or commons).
                     A considerable number of the clergy follow their
                     example.
                28.  The King, from a desire of peace, requests the
                     whole body of nobility and clergy to unite in one
                     assembly with the commons; which is acceded to.

                14.  Mons. de L'Aulnay, the governor, falls a victim to
                     the fury of the assailants.  Bertier, intendant of
                     Paris; Foulon, secretary of state; and de
                     Flesselle, prêvot des Marchands, (somewhat like
                     mayor of Paris) are massacred.  From, this period
                     the maxim was adopted, "that insurrection was the
                     most sacred of duties."
                15.  The King goes to the assembly to confer with it
                     upon the disturbances of Paris.  Many considerable

                     comes to Paris.  Bailly harangues him freely at the

                 6.  After murdering the King's guards under the windows
                     of the Palace, they forcibly conduct both him and

                     populace, and with great danger of their lives.

                     The name of Jacobins was derived from the house
                     where the club met, and which had belonged to the
                     religious order of Jacobins.

                     toises.  Each league contains 3,850 acres (arpents)
                     which make 105,400,000 acres.  Valuing the acres
                     one with another at 150 livres each, the total
                     value of the lands would be 15,810,000,000. The
                     debts of the republic at this time are
                     17.500,000,000, and these are secured by the lands;

                     The prisoners are ordered to Vannes, with General
                     Sombreuil, the bishop of Dol, and other
                     considerable persons.
                     Tallien, in his reports to the convention, states
                     the loss of the royalists at 10,000 men and that of
                     the republicans as trifling; his whole report
                     appears extravagant.

                     its friendship and alliance, beseeches the
                     convention to distinguish the last moments of its

                     are heard on all sides.  Several bloody engagements
                     take place between the sections and

                     Tallien renews his motion to transport all those
                     who did not like a republican government.
                     The Count d'Artois, under convoy of Sir John
                     Warren, takes possession of l'Isle Dieu (sic).
                     A French squadron of six sail of the line falls in
                     with a valuable British convoy from the
                     Mediterranean, and captures the Censeur, a 74 gun
                     ship, and several merchantmen.
                     Vernier, the organ of the committee of finances,
                     proposes to substitute money made of some metal in
                     the place of 18 milliards of assignats in
                     circulation.
                     The inhabitants of Versailles supplicate the
                     convention to take into consideration the sad state
                     of their commune.
                     A horrible picture is laid before the convention of
                     massacres in the South; the banks of the Rhone and
                     of the Durance are said to be covered with dead
                     carcases, upon which the dogs are feeding.
                     Garnier de Saintes addresses from the tribune the
                     royalists of France.  "Insects," (says he) "return
                     "to your nothingness; ye shall perish, whilst we
                     "shall be masters of the world, with which we will
                     "share our fortune and our liberty."
                     Tallien prophesies, that before three months a
                     counter-revolution will be effected; and he
                     therefore advises his colleagues to make their
                     political testament.
                     Thibadeau immediately accuses Tallien of all the
                     calamities of the  revolution.
                     Clairfait and Wurmser compel the French to repass
                     the Rhine precipitately, and obtain great
                     advantages over them.
                     Baudin, the organ of the committees of government,
                     proposes to the convention to adopt a plan of a
                     general amnesty for any act regarding the
                     revolution, excepting always the banished priests,
                     the emigrants, the fabricators of forged assignats,
                     and the assassins of the South.
                     As to the punishment of death, it is not to be
                     abolished till peace be established.
                24.  Rewbell pretends that the new government cannot
                     establish itself but by calling in the assignats,
                     and substituting an augmentation of taxes.
                     The convention, having proclaimed an amnesty,
                     declares its sittings at an end; and to make up the
                     500 members who are to remain, it constitutes
                     itself into an electoral body.
                     Le Bon is condemned to death by the criminal
                     tribunal of Amiens.
                     The colonists of St. Domingo, who are at Paris,
                     nominate their deputies to the new legislature.
                26.  From the 12th to the end of this month the
                     Austrians continue without ceasing to pursue the
                     French, and to destroy them in great numbers.

   CHAPTER IV.

                     THE new legislature, or fourth assembly of the
                     French, enters upon its office.  It is composed of
                     a legislative body of 500 members; of a council of
                     ancients 250; of an executive directory of 5
                     members; and of 6 ministers, viz. for the interior
                     department, for the war, for justice, for the
                     admiralty, for foreign affairs, and for finances.
                     The five members of the executive directory are, La
                     Reveillere, le Paux, la Tourneur, Carnot, Rewbell,
                     and Barras; all ex-deputies of the national
                     convention.
   Nov.            The legislative body is employed in discussing a
                     decree passed in the last sitting of the
                     convention, which imposed a tax of six milliards on
                     the landed property, and two milliards upon
                     industry.
                     The criminal tribunal acquits Gen. Menon, suspected
                     of having taken part in the, rebellion of the
                     sections.
                     The depreciation of assignats is at this time so
                     great, that a pair of shoes costs 300 livres, a
                     yard of cloth 3000, a bushel of potatoes 120, a
                     pound of bread 40, a pound of coffee and of sugar
                     175, a pound of candles and of soap 80 livres each;
                     a louis-d'or is worth 4,600 livres.
                     The executive directory obtains a grant of three
                     milliards, to be at its discretion distributed
                     among the different offices.
                     The subsistence of Paris not being assured, it is
                     decreed, that 250 quintals (each 100lbs. weight) be
                     levied on the departments bordering on Paris.
                     The Cape of Good-Hope is taken by the English.
                     The trial of Comartin, one of the chiefs of the
                     Chouans, occupies at present the military tribunal,
                     and all Paris.
                     The republican generals, and many deputies of the
                     convention are implicated in this affair.
                     A ship full of emigrants, among whom are the Duke
                     de Choiseul and the Count de Montmorency, is driven
                     by a tempest into Calais.  They are given up to the
                     criminal tribunal of that city.
                     Besides the sum above granted to the executive
                     directory, twenty-one millions more are allowed to
                     them.  Thirty millions more added for the expences
                     of the legislative body.
                23.  Public and formal audiences are given by the
                     executive directory to foreign ambassadors.
                     Insurrection of 15,000 peasants in the Velay.
                     Manheim is taken by the Austrians; 394 pieces of
                     cannon are found in it.
                     Worms and Spires are retaken by the Austrians.
                     Decreed, that the executive directory may sell the
                     moveable or personal property of the republic, (le
                     mobilier) even to the timber in the national
                     forests.
   Dec.            According to the report upon the finances, the
                     arrears due amount to 3,500,000,000 livres; the
                     debt to the national bank is 31,000,000 in specie,
                     and 7,500,000 in specie to foreigners.
                     The service of the next month requires
                     20,220,000,000 in assignats.
                     Letter from the directory to the legislative body
                     declaring, that the state is in the most calamitous
                     situation; that the springs of government are
                     almost broken, that the public treasure is
                     exhausted, and that they are threatened with evils,
                     which may overwhelm the republic.
                     Decreed, that a forced loan shall be levied of
                     600,000,000 in specie upon a million of citizens.
                     It is computed that by means of three hundred
                     millions in specie, thirty milliards of assignats
                     will be taken out of circulation.  In this forced
                     loan assignats are to be taken at one per cent.
                     A motion is made to sell Compiegne, Fontainbleau,
                     Chantilly, Ramboullet, Meudon, St. Germaine, St.
                     Cloud, Choisy, Vincennes, and the wood of Boulogne.

                     350 millions every ten days, the directory

                     granted for that purpose are exhausted.
                     Decreed, that the directory shall nominate all the

                     assignats, and in the ten months and a half after
                     him there were issued 17,852,226,000 livres in

RESULT OF THE THIRD SCRUTINY.

PRESIDENT VERGNIAULT.

"CITIZENS!

"I am going to pronounce the sentence of rigour against Louis. "When justice has spoken, humanity should then make her voice heard. "I intreat the members and the tribune to observe profound silence. "The assembly is composed of 745 members: 1 of these is dead—6 are "sick—2 absent without assigning any reason—11 are absent with "leave—4 have not voted; the total is 24, which, being deducted "from 745, there remain 721 voters, of whom the absolute majority is "361.

 "36 are for death, leaving the time of it to be discussed hereafter.
  "9 for death, with respite.
  "2 for death, after a peace.
  "2 for chains.
"319 for confinement.
"366 for death.

"CITIZENS,

"The punishment pronounced against Louis is DEATH."

THE APPEAL OF LOUIS XVI.

"I OWE it to my honour, I owe it to my family, not to subscribe to an "accusation which I have not merited. I declare therefore, that I "bring an appeal to the nation at large from the judgment passed "against me; and I give to my defenders all necessary powers, in "order that this present appeal may be inserted in the Journals of "the Convention."

Refused!

The ADDRESS of Mons. DE SEZE, one of the defenders of the King,
to the Convention.

         "THE ratification by the French people, which Louis demands,
"is the exercise of a natural and sacred right which belongs to
"every person accused; it is the right of every man, and
"consequently of Louis.  If we did not prefer this claim in his
"defence, it was because it was not in our power to foresee that the
"National Convention would resolve upon judging him; or, if it did
"judge him, that it would condemn him.  We now learn, that the fatal
"decree, which condemns Louis to death, has been carried by a
"majority of five votes only.  Permit me, Citizens, to represent to
"you, in the name of humanity, in the name of that sacred principle
"which calls for every mitigation in favour of the accused, that this
"circumstance, so very extraordinary, may well engage you
"voluntarily to accede to the proposed ratification.  I demand it in
"the name of justice, in the name of our country, in the name of
"humanity.  Exercise your own high powers; but do not astonish France
"by the exhibition of a judgment that must appear terrible, when the
"surprising minority comes to be considered.

"Citizens, permit me to adjure you once more in the name of "Louis XVI. and to conclude with suggesting to you, whether, whilst "you are contending for the security of the nation, and its real "interest, you will not tremble, when you reflect, that the safety of "the republic, the Security of the French empire, and the happiness "of 25 millions of people, may possibly depend upon five votes."

******

FOURTH APPEL NOMINAL.

THE object of this fourth appeal was to know whether the execution of Louis might be deferred; 310 were for respite, and 380 against it. Thus, by a majority of 70 votes, it was decreed, that the sentence against Louis XVI. should be executed without delay.

******

THE EXECUTION OF LOUIS XVI.

21st JANUARY, 1793.

THE minister of justice and the heads of the administrative corps, having proceeded to the Temple on Sunday the 20th of January, about four in the evening, notified to Louis the warrant for his execution. "I demand," said the King, "a respite of three days to "prepare myself for appearing before God. To assist me in this work, "I desire to have Mr. Edgeworth, (an Irish clergyman) with whom I may "freely communicate. I desire that he may be secured from all "uneasiness, or apprehension, on account of this charitable office "which he shall perform for me. I desire to be relieved from that "perpetual watch which the council-general has set over me for some "days. I demand in this interval the privilege of seeing my family "when I shall desire it, and without witnesses. I could also wish, "that the Convention would, as speedily as may be, set about "determining the fate of my family, and permit them to see each other "freely and commodiously, when they shall think proper.

"I recommend to the liberality of the nation all those persons who "have been attached to me. Among my pensioners there are many aged "men, women, and children, who have no other means of subsistence."

Of all there requisitions Louis obtained only that of seeing his family without witnesses. It was the first time since his imprisonment. The interview lasted two hours. It is impossible to express the horror of the moment, when he was obliged to tear himself away from them. On his return to his apartment, the King passed a almost the whole of the night in prayer. He then laid down and slept a few hours, and early in the morning betook himself again to prayer.

The 21st of January, at half past eight o'clock, Santerre, the commandant-general, came to signify to Louis the order for his going to execution. Having requested three minutes to speak with his confessor, he then turned to Santerre, and told him that he was ready to follow him.

The King crossed the first court of the Temple on foot; he then entered the coach of Pethion, the mayor of Paris, with his Confessor and two Gendarmes. His route lay along, the Boulevards, which were lined with above two hundred thousand men in arms. All the way Louis was deeply engaged in reading the prayers appointed for persons at the point of death.

Being, arrived at the Place de Louis XV. which was the place of execution, about ten o'clock in the morning, he alighted from the carriage with calmness, took off his clothes himself, remaining in his white under-waistcoat, untied his cravat, and opened the collar of his shirt; he then threw himself upon his knees to receive the last benediction of his Confessor, got up immediately after, and ascended the scaffold alone. At that moment his Confessor cried out to him, "Son of St. Louis, you are going up to Heaven!" [Footnote; Other accounts state, that it was when the King had just prepared himself for the stroke of the fatal instrument, that Mons. Edgeworth, his confessor, called out (in the imperative) with a loud voice, "Enfant de Saint Louis, montez au Ciel." "Son of St. Louis, mount up "to Heaven."]

Far from opposing those who came to cut off his hair, and bind his hands, " Do with me," said he, "what you will, it is the last "sacrifice." He then made a motion with his hand to obtain "silence.—"I die perfectly innocent of all the pretended crimes laid "to my charge—I forgive all those who have had any hand in my "misfortunes, and I pray that my blood may be of use in restoring "happiness to France—and you, unhappy people!" ......

At these words, the unfeeling Santerre gave orders that the drums should beat, crying out to the King, "that he had not brought him "there to declaim, but to die." At that instant his head was severed from his body! ......

The corpse was immediately conveyed to the Magdalene burying-ground, and thrown into a pit twelve feet deep, into which a considerable quantity of quicklime was cast.

It is said, that after crying out, "Vive la Nation!" "Vive la Republique!" some volunteers dipped their pikes, and others their handkerchiefs, in the blood of the victim. One person alone had the courage to cry out, Grace, and was instantly cut down with a sabre.

Thus died Louis XVI. King of France and Navarre. He was born the 23d of August, 1754, ascended the throne the 10th of May, 1774, and reigned eighteen years and three months.

THE LAST WILL OF LOUIS XVI.

IN the name of the most holy Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, this day, the 25th of December, 1792, I, Louis XVI. by name, King of France, having been four months shut up with my family in the Tower of the Temple, at Paris, by those who were my subjects, and deprived of all communication whatever, even, since the 11th of this month, with my family; being moreover involved in a trial, of which it is impossible to foresee the issue, on account of the passions of men, and for which there is no pretence nor motive in any existing law, having none but God for witness to my thoughts, and to whom I can address myself, I here declare, in his presence, my last will and sentiments.

I leave my soul to GOD my creator; I beseech him to receive it in his mercy; not to judge it according to its merits, but to those of our Lord Jesus Christ, who offered himself as a sacrifice to GOD his Father for us men, unworthy of it as we are, and I more than any.

I die in the faith of our holy mother the catholic, apostolic, and Roman Church, which derives her powers in an uninterrupted succession from St. Peter, to whom Jesus Christ had entrusted them; I firmly believe and acknowledge all that is contained in the apostles' creed, the commandments of God, and of the church; the sacraments and mysteries, such the Catholic Church teaches, and has always taught them; I never pretended, to be a judge of the different modes of explaining the dogmas which divide the church of Jesus Christ; but I have always trusted, and shall always trust, if God grants me life, to the decisions that the ecclesiastical superiors, together with the holy catholic church, give and shall give, according to the discipline of the church since Jesus Christ. I pity with all my heart our brethren who may be in error, but I do not pretend to judge them; nor do I love them the less in Jesus Christ, according to what christian charity teaches us, and I pray God to forgive me all my sins: I have scrupulously sought to know them, to detest them, and to humble myself in his presence. Not being permitted to make use of the ministry of a catholic priest, I pray God to receive the confession which I have made to him of them; and above all, my sincere repentance for having put my name (though against my will) to acts that may be contrary to the discipline and faith of the catholic church, to which I have always been sincerely and faithfully united. I pray God to accept my firm resolution, if he grants me life, to make use as soon as possible of the ministry of a catholic priest, that I may accuse myself of all my sins, and receive the sacrament of penance. I beseech all those whom I may have inadvertently offended, (for I do not remember to have knowingly given offence to any person) and those to whom I may have given bad examples, or caused scandal, to forgive the injuries they think I may have done them.

I implore all charitable persons to join their prayers to mine, to obtain from God the pardon of my sins; I, with all my heart, forgive those who are become my enemies, although I have not given them any reason to be so; and I beseech God to forgive them, as well as those who, through a false or mistaken zeal, have brought many misfortunes on me.

I recommend to God, my wife and children; my sisters, my aunts, my brothers, and all those who are attached to me, either by the ties of blood, or in any other way whatever. I particularly beseech God to cast a merciful eye on my wife, my children, and my sister, who have long suffered with me, to support them by his grace, if they should happen to lose me, and as long as they remain in this perishable world.

I recommend my children to my wife; I never doubted her maternal tenderness for them. I above all recommend to her to make them good christians, and honest people; to make them consider the grandeurs of this world (if they be condemned to possess them) only as dangerous and perishable possessions, and to direct their attention to Eternity, the only solid and durable glory. I beg of my sister to continue her tenderness to my children, and to be a mother to them, if they should have the misfortune of losing her who is such.

I intreat my wife to forgive me all the afflictions she suffers for my sake, and the sorrows I may have given her in the course of our union; as she may be certain that I have no fault to find with her, even where she may think she has cause to reproach herself.

I earnestly recommend to my children, after what they owe to God, (which is the first of all duties) to live always in harmony with one another, to be submissive and obedient to their mother, and grateful to her for all the care and trouble she takes for them out of regard to my memory. I desire them to consider my sister as their second mother.

I recommend to my Son, if he has the misfortune to become King, to remember that he owes himself entirely to his fellow citizens; that he must forget all hatred and resentment, and particularly all that relates to the misfortunes and afflictions that I endure; that he can only make the people happy by reigning according to the laws, but at the same time, that a King cannot make himself respected, and do all the good he wishes, without having the necessary authority; and that otherwise, being restrained in his operations, and not inspiring respect, he is rather hurtful than useful.

I recommend to my son to take as much care of all those persons who were attached to me, as the circumstances he may be in will allow him; to recollect that it is a sacred debt which I have contracted towards the children or the relations of those who have died for me, and those who suffer for my sake. I know that there are several persons among those who ought to have been attached to me, who have not acted towards me as they ought, and have even been ungrateful towards me; but I forgive them, (often in time of trouble and confusion, men are not masters of themselves) and I beg my son, if he finds the opportunity, to think only of their misfortunes.

I wish I could here give a testimony of my gratitude to those who have shown a true and disinterested affection for me. If, on the one hand, I have been sensibly affected with the ingratitude and disloyalty of those, to whom I had shewn at all times only kindness to them, their relations, or friends; on the other hand, I have had the consolation to receive proofs of disinterested affection and regard from several others. I beg them to accept my best thanks.

In the present state of things, I should fear to expose them if I spoke more explicitly; but I particularly recommend to my son to embrace every opportunity of discovering them.

Nevertheless, I think I should wrong the national feeling, if I were not openly to recommend to my son Messieurs De Chamilly and Hue, whose sincere affection for me induced them to shut themselves up with me in this melancholy abode, and who ran the risque (sic) of being the unfortunate victims of their attachment. I also recommend Cleri, with whose attentions I have had all reasons to be satisfied ever since he has been with me. As he is the person who has remained with me to the last, I request Messieurs de la Commune to give him my clothes, my books, and the other trifles which have been deposited at the Council of the Commune.

I also very willingly forgive those who guarded me, for their ill treatment, and the constraint which they thought necessary to keep me under. I have found some feeling and compassionate minds; may they enjoy in their hearts the pleasure that their turn of thinking must afford them.

I request Messieurs De Malsherbes, Tronchet, and De Seze, to receive my best thanks, and assurances of my gratitude for all the care and attention they have shown me.

I conclude with declaring before GOD, being ready to appear before him, that I cannot reproach myself with any of those crimes that have been laid to my charge.

Made and copied in the Tower of the Temple, the 25th of December, 1792.

                                            (Signed)           LOUIS.

                        And undersigned BEAUDRAIS, Municipal Officer.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™

Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic works

Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.

Most people start at our website which has the main PG search facility: www.gutenberg.org.

This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™, including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
