Marie-Anne Pierrette Paulze, Madame LAVOISIER (1758-1836). Fragment of autograph letter, July 22 [1794], to her brother; 1 oblong page in-12, framed. Incarcerated after her husband's execution, from June 24 to August 17, 1794, Madame Lavoisier sends this poignant bill to her brother: "If I live, it is for you alone to be judged, if I des[ire] that you keep yourself. Ah mon frère est-il un sort pareil au mien"[]
