Jean-Lambert TALLIEN. L.A.S., Paris, January 14, 1816, to His Highness Prince Eugene in Munich; 2 pages in-4, address. A long letter from his old age, when he was banished from France and wanted to take refuge in Bavaria. He recalls the Prince's friendship for him "from your earliest youth, the friendship with which your respectable mother honored me", and explains that he is "affected by the amnesty law, even though for more than 20 years I have not been involved in any political affairs, even though since March 20 I have not held any position, any job, but I voted for the additional act, having to keep my pension on foreign affairs, my only resource to live [...].Today I find myself obliged to leave my country, without money, without resources to have some, not knowing where to direct my steps". He asks the Prince for the authorization to reside in Bavaria, "even under another name than mine", as well as an annual sum "to have the means to live obscurely [...] I would occupy myself during the moments of rest that my infirmities would leave me with some literary works and perhaps even to publish a history of the Revolution of which I have been occupied for a long time and which I have been, as you know, in a position to observe well"... Etc. Attached is a l.s. from Count Anglès, Prefect of Police, September 20, 1816, to Dr. Barras, asking him to examine Tallien, and to find out if he is fit to travel abroad. (1 p. in-4).
