[Dueling] 8 documents, October 1813. File on the duel between d'Arlincourt and Colonel Camon on October 12, 1813, during which the latter was killed. 4 letters from Camon to d'Arlincourt, 2 from d'Arlincourt to Camon and a certificate signed by General Millet de Villeneuve authorizing d'Arlincourt to go to the Torre de l'Annunziata "for special business. Through these letters, the tone rises between the two men, however following a minor affair - but one of honour, until Camon proposes a duel. The story of this affair is summarized in a "report to the Queen" (a copy of the time), proving Camon wrong (although he fired first).
