ARMISTICE OF VERSAILLES 1871. (NIÈVRE. SEINE ET MARNE) - Address to Messrs. Mayors of the department of SEINE MARNE by ROUSSEAU Prefect "At the time I am writing to you, the terms, the bases and the conditions of the armistice concluded at VERSAILLES, last January 28, are not yet officially known to the country. The administrative officials of the department and I are completely unaware of the guarantees that must have been stipulated for our security and our freedom of action... Under these conditions, we could not return to the department, where we would be in contact with the Prussian authority... That is why from our residence in NEVERS, where we remain by virtue of the instructions of the Government, I am sending you the three decrees relating to the elections which are to take place on February 8 next (Representatives for the Legislatives)... and to work without respite on the work of national reparation... " - NEVERS, Impr. and Lith. FAY, place de la Halle and 1 rue du Rempart. Poster (56 x 44) Condition A
