Alexandre DUMAS père Lot n° 314

L.A.S., May 29[1860], to Charles Robelin; 3 pages in-8 (small slits in the fold). On his mistress Emilie Cordier. It is certain that a man like Robelein "who had 14 children" and experienced the misfortune must feel sorry for himself: "The dear little child you saw at home - boy by day becomes a woman again by night. At one point when he was a woman, an accident happened to him that occurred the following month. Mr Émile has disappeared and Miss Émilie is pregnant - and therefore obliged in two months to let me continue my journey alone"; she will be in Paris in July, and it would be necessary "to find her at that time a small apartment furnished in the countryside in your surroundings"... They leave for Palermo: "It goes without saying that Miss Emilie will become Mr Emilie again and join me immediately"...
