Emperor of Russia (born 1754) from 1796 until his assassination in 1801, the son of Catherine the Great, and a champion of the poorer classes, his sweeping reforms alienated the Russian nobility and were thought to have provided a prime motivation for the conspiracy that led to his brutal death. ALS in French, one page, 5.75 x 7, July 29, 1788. Letter, written from Wibourg, to General Christoph von Benckendorff. In part (translated): “I write this to ask you not to send letters not bearing my address received when the court is not present. This morning Cesens told everybody what was in your package to your wife a letter from Michelson to Mannanof…such things may turn out to be agreeable to you sooner of later.” In fine condition, with central horizontal and vertical fold and some scattered light creases.
