Unsigned handwritten manuscript, in pencil, three pages, 8.25 x 10.75, no date. An article in French entitled “Au Canada,” in part (translated): “I just crossed part of Canada from Winnipeg to Victoria going through Edmonton and Calgary. My God what an interesting country…The diversity of nature cannot be described…It seemed like spring. Flowers everywhere, charming houses along side the bay, very luxurious cars. Oh! when I see the progress of this huge Canada, I cannot help to think about this criminal King Louis XV who sold it for one million…this stupid action proves at what point absolute power is absurd thank God one cannot commit such an act today, the Kings and Emperors are only left to be the employees of the peoples, and the peoples are the whole nation. This Canada will certainly become the world granary attic. I will not live to see that; but nevertheless I see it in the future.” In very good condition, with a central horizontal fold, small chips and tears to the edges, especially affecting writing to left side of first page, light scattered soiling, and rusty staple holes to top and bottom.
