French Socialist leader (1859–1914) who was assassinated at the outbreak of World War I, and remains one of the main historical figures of the French Left. ALS in French, one page, 4.25 x 5.25, November 13, 1901. Handwritten letter to M. Lecherbonnier, director of personnel at the Ministry of Justice. In part (translated): "You were good enough to tell Mr. Raynal, a substitute for Oran, that you would grant him leave until the end of the year, no doubt the Algiers Public Prosecutor's Office has not been notified of this, Algiers has just telegraphically invited Mr. Raynal to take the hierarchical route to his immediate post. I should be very grateful if you would intervene to dispel this misunderstanding." In fine condition, with scattered light creasing.
From the personal collection of a lifelong collector, teacher, and traveler with a passion for world history. His collecting years ranged from the 1970s to the present day, meaning that several of the premier pieces have not been on the market in decades.
