MADAME LATOUR'S MEMOIR. CONTAINING AN ACCOUNT OF THE LIFE IN THE PRISON OF THE LUXEMBOURG, WHERE SHE WAS IMPRISONED DURING THE YEARS 1793 AND 1794, IN COMPANY WITH MADAME LA MARÉCHALE DUCHESSE DE MOUCHY. The last two years, during which I shared the misfortunes of Monsieur and Madame de Mouchy, have abounded in such precious moments to me that in order to preserve the remembrance of them (not for myself,--to me they are ever present,--but for those near to me), I relate as an eye-witness the sad circumstances under which they manifested the nobility of their souls, and the beautiful spirit in which they endured their captivity. I trust I may be pardoned for speaking of myself frequently when I am talking about them, and for saying 'we' when I ought to say Monsieur and Madame la Maréchale; but I may say that their interests had become mine, that my existence, on account of my attachment to them, depended so much upon theirs, that everything I thought and felt was in common with them. I was very careful in this matter; for they treated me with such distinction that it often embarrassed me. They thought, these honoured friends (may I be pardoned for expressing myself thus), that they were under obligations to me; but they were mistaken. I was never more proud of anything than of waiting upon them in prison. Let no one praise me for it; I do not deserve praise.
