daughter with his acolytes。
'112' 〃Souvenirs;〃 by General Pélleport; p。8。 He; with his battalion;
is inspected in the Place du Capitale; at Toulouse; by the
representative on mission。 〃It seems as if I can still see that
charlatan: He shook his ugly plumed head and dragged along his saber
like a merry soldier; wishing to appear brave。 It made me feel sad。〃
'113' Fervel; 〃Campagnes des Fran?ais dans les Pyrenees Orientals;〃
I。; 169。 (October; 1793。) … Ibid。; 201; 206。 … Cf。 188。 Plan of
Fabre for seizing Roses and Figuières; with eight thousand men;
without provisions or transports。 〃Fortune is on the side of fools;〃
he said。 Naturally the scheme fails。 Collioure is lost; and
disasters accumulate。 As an offset to this the worthy general
Dagobert is removed。 Commandant Delatre and chief…of…staff Ramel are
guillotined。 In the face of the impracticable orders of the
representatives the commandant of artillery commits suicide。 On the
devotion of the officers and enthusiasm of the troops; Ibid。; 105;

this was to lead men who had any means to keep aloof from any sort of
promotion。〃 … Cf。; ibid。; II。; 131 (November; 1794;) the same order of
things still kept up。 By order of the representatives the army
encamps during the winter in sheds on the left bank of the Rhine; near
Mayence; a useless proceeding and mere literary parade。 〃They would
listen to no reason; a fine army and well…mounted artillery were to
perish with cold and hunger; for no object whatever; in quarters that
might have been avoided。〃 The details are heart…rending。 Never was
military heroism so sacrificed to the folly of civilian commanders。

biographical details and traits of character。
'117' Ibid。; I。; 13。 … His mother became crazy and was put in an

running away。〃

said to me in a passion: 〃It is you; is it; you damned beggar; who
presumes to denounce me to the Committee of Public Safety。 。 。 。
As it is sometimes necessary for the public interests to get rid of
certain folks quickly; I won't take the trouble to send you to the
guillotine; I'll be your executioner myself!〃
