POITIERS (VIENNE). REVOLUTION – Jean Mathieu CHABIEL DE MORIERE (1743–1805), Mayor of POITIERS from 1784 to 1790 – Autograph letter signed at City Hall on July 29, 1789 – 2 pages, in-4°: “Having been elected by your votes to fill the delicate position of Mayor in this city, I, in accepting the honor with which you have seen fit to bestow upon me, relied more on my zeal than on my strength. The diversity of opinions under the current circumstances leaves me in no doubt as to my inadequacy. Filled with this conviction, I have no choice but to tender my resignation...” (Crawford Collection)
