French general and admiral (1729–1794). In 1778, he led a fleet to aid the American rebels. Although he sympathized with revolutionaries during the French Revolution, he held a personal loyalty to the French royal family. Because of this he came under suspicion, and was executed by guillotine in the Reign of Terror. Partly-printed DS, in French, signed “Hector,” one page, 8 x 12.25, August 12, 1789. Untranslated document signed as General of the National Guard and Admiral of the Court of Versailles. Intersecting folds, scattered creases and wrinkles, and a bit of light toning and soiling, otherwise fine condition.
