HUGO Victor (1802-1885) [AF 1841, 14e f]. L.A.S. "Victor H", January 14 [1848, to Pierre CAUWET]; 1 page in-8, addressed with black wax seal to his arms (portrait enclosed). On the French Academy. [Pierre CAUWET, chansonnier and poet, employed at the Mont de Piété, will be accused of theft in 1850; supported by a letter from Hugo in L'Événement, he will have his innocence recognized]. "Yes, Sir, I spoke about you at the Academy. Your sufferings are for me a true and deep sorrow. I complained about M. de RAMBUTEAU, I will complain about him again. I would like the Academy to do something, but these bodies which are forty heads and eighty legs walk so slowly! No matter how much I shout at them: we are cold, we are hungry! As they have warm feet and full stomachs, they do not hurry".
