L.A.S. "Victor Hugo", Hauteville house [Guernsey] January 24 [1873], to Mme Zélie ROBERT in Winterthur| 1 page in-8 (split, corner restored), with her stamped envelope "Thank for me, Madame, your worthy and dear husband. Everything he tells me about the wretched reigning political intrigue is perfectly true, but I have more hope than he does. I don't doubt the future. And among the sure blessings of the future, I boldly promise you, Madame, the return of your son. You are good and generous parents. You will see him again, you will see him purified and grown by the ordeal, you will see him again as a man. That's how our enemies sometimes save us. I was delighted by the gracious sending of your two portraits, I shake hands with M. Robert, and I place at your feet, Madame, my memories and my homage.
