Madame de Staël (Anne Louise Germaine Necker, Baroness of Staël-Holstein, known as) [Paris, 1766 – id., 1817], French writer. Autograph letter addressed to Adrien de Mun at Mr. de Garville’s residence in Greny near Morat. Tuesday, June 7 [1796]; 1 page, in-8° format, with address and wax seal. Madame de Staël urges Mr. de Mun most strongly to come and join her! “Benjamin received the message via Chénier and swore to me that he would serve you with the greatest zeal. The government in Paris knew nothing about my case in the department of Ain [an arrest warrant in case Madame de Staël crossed the border], and they have promised to rectify it. Mr. de Staël’s trip is still on hold, though Benjamin is confident a decision will be made within 15 days—I therefore solemnly demand that you be here on Wednesday morning, June 15 [...] You may bring Norvins if you please, but if you disobey this explicit order—I shall never see you again in my life. You see that I am resorting to drastic measures for minor matters, but that is how they are successfully resolved.”
