VERSAILLES ARMISTICE 1871. (NIÈVRE. SEINE ET MARNE) - Address to MM. Les Maires du département de SEINE & MARNE by ROUSSEAU Préfet "At the time of writing, the terms, bases and conditions of the armistice concluded at VERSAILLES on January 28th are not yet officially known to the country. The administrative officials of the department and I are completely unaware of the guarantees which had to be stipulated for our security and freedom of action ... Under these conditions, we could not return to the department, where we would be in contact with the Prussian authority... This is why, from our residence in NEVERS, where we are staying under the instructions of the Government, I am sending you the three decrees relating to the elections to be held on 8 February next (Representatives for the Legislatures) ... and to work tirelessly in the work of national reparation ...". - NEVERS, Impr. and Lith. FAY, place de la Halle and 1 rue du Rempart. Poster (56 x 44) State A
