- Archives Nationales, F.7, 4434. (Letter of P?rrieu to Brissot,
Bordeaux, March 9, 1793.) Before June 2, the national club "of
Bordeaux, composed of Maratists, did not comprise more than eight or
ten individuals at most." - Moniteur, XXII., 133. (Speech by
Thibeaudeau on the popular club of Poitiers, Vend?miaire II, year
III.) - Ibid. (Session of Brumaire 5, year III., letter of Cal?s, and
session of Brumaire 17, year III., report by Cal?s.) "The popular club
of Dijon made all neighboring administrative bodies, citizens and
districts tremble. All were subject to its laws, and three or four
men in it made them. This club and the municipality were one body."
"The Terror party does not exist here, or, if it does exist, it does
not amount to much: out of twenty thousand inhabitants there are not
six who can legitimately be suspected of belonging to it."
[86] Baroly, "Les Jacobins Demasqu?s," (IV. 8vo., of 8pp., year II).
"The Jacobin club, with its four hundred active members at Paris, and
the four thousand others in the provinces, not less devoted, represent
the living force of the Revolution."
