It is clear that the scribe had
been instructed to enlarge the number of votes accepting the decrees,
which suggests doubts on the truth of the total furnished by the
convention.
[19] Ibid., A. II. B., 638 (General recapitulation). I have taken
the number of primary assemblies in the twenty-two first departments
on the alphabetical list, that is to say, one quarter of the
territory, which warrants a conclusion, proportionately, on the whole
country. In these twenty-two departments, 1,570 assemblies vote on
the constitution and only three hundred and twenty-eight on the
decrees. The figures are herewith given: in the C?tes-du-Nord,
eighty-four primary assemblies; only one votes in favor of the
decrees. Bouches du Rhone, ninety primary assemblies; four vote on
the decrees, two for and two against. Aude, eighty-three primary
assemblies; four vote on the decrees, three for and one against.
Arri?ge, fifty-nine primary assemblies; two vote on the decrees.
Basses-Alpes, forty-eight primary assemblies: two vote on the decrees.
Maritime Alps, twenty-three primary assemblies; not one votes on the
decrees.

department of the Seine, Popincourt section, Vend?miaire) 91.
