"I had very high hopes when you presented yourself on the chair of LABICHE; my disappointment was strong. [...] The competitors are numerous [...] Zola, Brunetière, Bergerat, H. Becque, Bardoux, Bornier, Sarcey, Theuriet; that is a lot of people, this mass of candidates does not seem to me to be formidable, I can hardly see that Theuriet, on whose name the game of the election was played, Meilhac, can have any chances. As for Lavisse, I have no idea what he intends to do"... If the Duke of Aumale takes his candidacy in hand, he will have a serious chance of success... Paris, December 11, 1890. He gives this result: "The admiral and Marmier voted firmly; the 13th vote of the second round is that of Camille Doucet"... We join 2 L.A.S. to the marquis of Flers, October-December 1879.
