Augustin Fabre begins his own"; in September 1834, Feissat takes stock of the situation with the lawyer (we learn that they have finished despite the lack of payment); in April 1835, Feissat regrets that this affair is not over, even if cholera has afflicted Marseille and its businesses, now that there is no longer any danger, we must conclude; [Teissat dies in September 1835] the widow Teissat takes over from her husband, and in April 1836 establishes in detail the situation of this "Histoire de Provence" (printed deliveries, status with Camoin, various accounts).
