the Luxembourg section on the 21st of June, the day of the king's
departure, sent commissaries and a military detachment to my domicile.
There was no judicial verdict, no legal order, either of police-court,
or justice of the peace, no examination whatever preceding this
mission... The employees of the section overhauled my papers, books and
letters, transcribing some of the latter, and carried away copies and
the originals, putting seals on the rest, which were left in charge of
two fusiliers."]
