Edmond DUBOIS (1822-191) Astronomer and hydrographer. Letter A.S., POUL-AR-FEUNTEUN (29) June 18, 1886, to Admiral Mouchez; 4 pages in-8. He has no illusions about his election to the Académie des Sciences: "As long as the section, either astronomy or navigation, which is willing to nominate me, does not put me in the 1st line, I am quite sure that I will not be appointed [...] You tell me that you think that for the next election I will be put in the 1st line, let's hope that you will be a good prophet! "... He speaks of poor Martinez, then of Mouchez's son Charles, whom he found very good, and a "charming boy [...] who will make a good naval officer! ... + Lettre A.S. de l'Astronome Félix TISSERAND à l'Amiral Mouchez (December 8, 1885), au sujet de procès-verbaux de séances.
