gauvan

This anecdote I have read in Gauvan's own handwriting, in a letter to his sister. He died in 1802; but Mademoiselle Gauvan, who is not yet fifteen, has a pension of three thousand livres a year from Lucien, who, has never seen her. Lucien Bonaparte has another good quality: he is consistent in his political principles.
