HUGO VICTOR: (1802-1885) French Poet and Novelist. A good A.L.S., `Victor Hugo
HUGO VICTOR: (1802-1885) French Poet and Novelist. A good A.L.S., `Victor Hugo´, one page, 8vo, n.p., `Friday evening´, n.d., to Gustave Chanaleilles, in French. Hugo very kindly and politely explains to his correspondent that he has never expressed any negative opinion about him, stating ` Comment avez-vous pu supposer un seul instant, monsieur, qu'une parole disgracieuse pour vous ait pu sortir de ma bouche? Permettez-moi de vous gronder. Je ne vous connais que comme un jeune homme des mieux nés et des mieux doués, et tout en vous annonce la grâce, l'esprit et la loyauté. Comment aurais-je pu avoir un seul moment une intention blessante pour vous? Ma conscience est là-dessus bien tranquille et je ne trouve en moi que votre éloge…´ (“How could you suppose, even if only for a moment, sir, that a disgraceful word about you could have come from me? Allow me to scold you. I know you only as a young man of the best birth and the best endowed, and everything about you speaks of grace, wit and loyalty. How could I have had a hurtful intention for you even for a single moment? My conscience is very clear on this and I find in myself only your praise..”) With address leaf in Hugo´s hand, postmarked.
