ALS in French, signed “A. Dreyfus,” one page, 4.5 x 6, no date (but bearing a pencil notation of “May 1908” in an unknown hand). Letter to the widow of Emile Zola, in full (translated): “Dear Madame and friend [male], I am sorry to learn that Sunday’s ceremony in Suresnes [West of Paris] is postponed to April 12. We had delayed until April 5 our departure to Italy, precisely to be able to attend by your side, but we cannot delay any longer because what would be the point of leaving then since we have to be back when school starts. We are going to Rome and to Naples to get a little rest and sunshine, however, be assured that our thoughts and heart will be with you on April 12. With fond memories to you both.” In fine condition.
