HUGO Victor (1802-1885). L.A.S. "V.H.," September 21 [1835], to Eugène RENDUEL; 1 page in-4 on water green paper, addressed. To his publisher about the preparation of Chants du crépuscule.

The other two were left at Mr. Bertin's door [] where you had to send for them.

As for Cromwell, please ask my Aunt Martine to look for him, for he cannot be found here. I am afraid that he has been taken from my house"...
