Jacques-Henri BERNARDIN DE SAINT-PIERRE (1737-1814),... - Lot 7 - Conan Belleville Hôtel d'Ainay
Jacques-Henri BERNARDIN DE SAINT-PIERRE (1737-1814), botanist and writer, member of the French Academy. Autograph letter signed "the intendant of the national garden of plants and of his cabinet of natural history De Saint Pierre", to the citizen of Cormeille. 1 p. in-4. " To the national garden of plants ", Nov. 30, 1792. Address on the back. He asks him to give him the pieces received from La Billardière (who was then carrying out his great voyage in search of the La Pérouse expedition) against a receipt: "It is necessary that I join them to the other titles of the National Garden of plants of which I am the depositary. If these documents were still necessary for the trial of Mr. de Buffon, it would be appropriate for the citizen of Cormeille to have copies made. I will however willingly wait a little longer to give him all the facilities that can be reconciled with my duties.
