SAÔNE-ET-LOIRE. Address from the Société des Amis de la Liberté de CHALON-SUR-SAÔNE, February 8, 1793 (MP) - 3-page print, addressed to the Friends of the Republic in NIORT (Deux-Sèvres): "The almost sudden disappearance of grain in our climate, one of the most fertile of the Republic, has determined us to ask the National Convention for a great measure of general safety against a new kind of conspiracy... then Legislators, you will enchain malice and greed; then you will dismay all the enemies of the public good, then you will have fulfilled the holiest of duties, you will have calmed the worries of the people, you will have saved the Fatherland. Such, representatives, is the wish of the undersigned Free Citizens of Chalon-sur-Saône..." Small vignette of a Phrygian cap on a pike.
