prinice par ordrc dc rasscnihlcc natioiiale et eiivoye a totis les 

 departemeiifs. This pamphlet is an attempt on the part of the 

 writer to justify himself and his fellows for the part they took 

 on June 20, asserting that as fathers of families, citizens and 

 soldiers they were right in what they did because of the oppres- 

 sion and plots of the king and nobles. He applauds the as- 

 sembly for its attitude. 



(8) Joly. Note historique sur la jounice du 20 ju'in, 1792, donnee par 



le Sr. Joly sergent des canonniers de la section du faubourg 

 du Nord. Written at Paris, March 20, 1816. Joly was a guard 

 in the king's apartments on June 20. He is strongly royalist 

 and, like Drouet, claims credit for services which he did not 

 render. His memory did not serve him well, twenty-four years 

 after the events. 



(9) Lamar, I'abbe. Les loisirs d'un cure deplace ou les acts de 



I'eglise constitutioiielle, tableau historique de la journee du 20 

 juin ou le triomphe du bonnet rouge. This pamphlet is found 

 in a collection called Pieces sur la revolution, journees fanieuses, 

 Vol. HI, j/p/ a 10 aoiit 1792. Very prejudiced and very bitter 

 in its tone. Makes sweeping accusations against the popular 

 leaders and the people and charges them with crimes which the 

 writer does not prove. He calls them regicides, bandits, canni- 

 bals, etc. He mentions various incidents of the day. Every 

 statement needs to be carefully controlled. 



(10) Le cri de la douleur ou journee du 20 juin par I'auteur du Domine 



salvem fac regent (extrait de la correspondance politique ou 

 tableau de Paris des 22 et 24 juin). Paris. Arch. nat. A. D. 

 102. Bitter in tone, royalist in sympathy, it makes many general 

 and specific accusations which it does not prove. It can not be 

 relied upon for statements of fact. It condemns in strong 

 language the supposed leaders of the day, particularly the 

 Girondins and Jacobins in the assembly. 



(11) P. M. D. V. Lettre au roi, presente par ses fideles sujets re- 



lativement a la journee, a jamais execrable, du 20 juin, 1792. 

 Signed P. M. D. 'V. Another of the anonymous pamphlets 

 which is of no value in giving facts, but which shows royalist 

 sentiment. It is full of praise for the king and condemnation 

 of the people for June 20. 



(12) Paroles d'un vrai Frangais apres I'aff reuse journee du 20 juin. 



Anonymous. This is royalist and extremely bitter in its attacks 

 on the supposed leaders of the uprising. It gives unstinted 

 praise to the king. Is of no value except to reflect sentiment.
