one hundred and twenty thousand; and, again,
the lists from some of the departments have not come in."--Lafayette,
"Memoires," vol. II., 181. (Letters to M. de Maubourg, Oct. 17, 1799
(note) Oct. 19, 1800.) According to the report of the Minister of
Police, the list of emigres, in nine vols., still embraced one hundred
and forty-five thousand persons, notwithstanding that thirteen thousand
were struck off by the Directory, and twelve hundred by the consular
government.]

Vaublanc.--Mallet-Dupan, "Memoires," II., 7. "Several, to whom I have
spoken, literally made the tour of France in various disguises, without
having been able to find an outlet; it was only after a series of
romantic adventures that they finally succeeded in gaining the Swiss
frontier, the only one at all accessible."--Sauzay, V., 210, 220, 226,
276. (Emigration of fifty-four inhabitants of Charquemont, setting out
for Hungary.)]
[Footnote 4105: Ibid., vols. IV., V., VI., VII. (On the banished priests
remaining and still continuing their ministrations, and on those who
returned to resume them.)--To obtain an idea of the situation of the
emigres and their relations and friends, it is necessary to read the law
of Sep.15, 1794 (Brumaire 25, year III.), which renews and generalizes
previous laws; children of fourteen years and ten years are affected
by it. It was with the greatest difficulty, even if one did not leave
France, that a person could prove that he had not emigrated.]

Austrian service: a robber. (SR)]

Vandamme to the convention, Ferney, Brumaire I, year II.) The reading of
this letter calls forth "reiterated applause."]

hundred. Some hundreds of names might be added, inasmuch as many of the
village lists are wanting.)]
