Baron Achille DERIVAUX, (Senones/ Vosges 1776-1843) Colonel d'Empire, Maréchal de camp des Dragons - Autograph letter signed DERIVAUX Commandant le Département de l'ALLIER. Moulins July 13, 1832. Beautiful, long letter to his good and old comrade General ROCHAMBEAU (Auguste Philippe Donatien de Vimeur de Rochambeau 1787 - 1868), 4 pages in-4°: "... What a succession of events has taken place since I distanced myself from you, My Dear ROCHAMBEAU! if our beautiful France needed your arm, your talents, you would soon convince her that there is still a ROCHAMBEAU; and I am sure that it was only after having given this promise to the King, whose spoiled child you would be, that you were allowed to go back to planting your cabbages.... If you had kept any relations with the 1st Regiment of Dragoons, many of whose officers were filled by you, you would have learned of the many mutations that have taken place since the events of July...".
