Georges CLEMENCEAU. L.A.S., Paris December 6, 1900, to a dear colleague; 1 1/2 pages in-8 (framed). He thanks him for his kind communication, but he is so tired that this week he almost asked La Dépêche for a leave of absence "and that I have just finished without having finished the article I am sending out this very day". He apologizes for not supporting him. "As for the work you're talking about, you understand, don't you, that it must take its definitive form only after the ordeal of the stage. I wish you good luck.
