Large archive of handwritten letters, dates ranging from 1848 to 1869 but most in the mid-50s, addressed to important French nobleman, the Marquis de Beaumont. Most are of a personal nature, intimate nature: Leopold de Carayon writes with humour: "If you are lying, I will catch you, my old friend...and this Pauline who supposedly is holding you back from coming, I will make her pay!...Come see me soon." Beaumont's godson writes, other nobility and there is one letter of condolence regarding the Marquis' mother's death. A certain concierge in Paris also writes of some intrigue. Very, very interesting archive showing an intimate glimpse of French nobility.
