Pierre-Augustin Caron de BEAUMARCHAIS (1732-1799). P.S. "Caron De Beaumarchais", in the margin of the copy of his "Circular letter of Mr. de Beaumarchais to the seven Maritime Chambers of Commerce", July 1, 1788; 1 page in-fol. Supporting document prepared in the case against Bergasse and Kornmann (a list of documents is annexed to the Court Memorial, pending the other, by P.A. Caron de Beaumarchais. On the defamation complaint which he has just rendered of a new Libelle which appears against him]. It gives the text of its circular of 27 May 1782 to the seven Chambers of Maritime Commerce, sending 100 louis to each to open a patriotic subscription to arm new vessels, following the French losses at the Battle of Les Saintes (Guadeloupe). In the margin, Beaumarchais signs and certifies this true copy, as well as Mony and Gittard, notaries at the Châtelet de Paris.
