VERLAINE, Paul (1844–1896). Autograph letter signed “P. Verlaine,” Broussais Hospital, October 16, 1893, to Jules NATHAN in Nancy; 1 page, in-8 format, in a stamped envelope. Description: He gives his consent to a series of lectures in Lorraine, which he will deliver in Nancy and Lunéville in November 1893. He believes he will be ready to leave on the scheduled date and, “barring any mishaps, will take the train to Nancy.” If there happens to be a Lunéville or some other place still willing to receive the ‘good word,’ that would be a welcome boost to my little nest egg. […] Do your best, you and the gentlemen of *La Lorraine Artise* […] For my part, I’ll take care of the train tickets and gather a little money.” And he gives his address: “Until further notice: Broussais Hospital, 96 Rue Didot.” Export certificate for a cultural artifact attached.
