Paul VERLAINE (1844-1896). L.A.S., May 25, 1890, to Raoul Ponchon; 1 page in-8. "My dear Ponchon, Thank you to you, to Richepin and to Mr Verola. You will have saved me, without phrase, without exaggeration, by giving me the means to get out of an unbelievable impasse, whatever the good and bad will of the organizers of the subscription to this ill-cut Plume!"... [Léon Deschamps, director of the review La Plume, had opened a subscription in favor of Verlaine].
