SADE Donatien-Alphonse, marquis de (1740-1814)
Signed autograph letter addressed to Jean-Baptiste QUINQUIN Paris October 5, 1793. 2 pages in-4 in brown ink on paper, address. Letter from citizen Sade who wants to sell his land in Mazan to buy a house in Paris. Quinquin put him in a state of mortal anxiety about his notary Gaufridy, from whom he had just received a letter in which "he had placed the 2620 books I was asking him and you for; he shows me some concern for his son, who is absent, but he does not seem to have any, he is in the country, and will, he begs me, return quietly to his home; if you have some fresher news, I beg you, and do not give me in the future such love at first sight when you are not sure of your fact. It seems to me that Ripert's emigration and the seizure of his goods does not prevent me from having to take away from mine what most certainly belongs to me. It is due to me from this part, and you oblige me to reason a little with Gauffridi, who is relying heavily on this object to count my next district to me. I have also asked him to finish the accounts of Lions who, I am told, has money of my own, and does not want to get rid of it without having his accounts cleared. Your idea of the Gauffridi campaign is a very good one, we must always keep the buyers on the edge of their seats, and keep this to complete the sum if we are unhappy enough not to be able to get through without it. Always work hard, I implore you. The offer we are making for the house in Mazan, undoubtedly the most beautiful in the city, is completely ridiculous. My intention being to include the garden, I flatter myself that we must offer much more. What is certain is that I will certainly not leave it at that price. If I could find a good price for all the land in Mazan, I would certainly sell it and buy here, where I can make an excellent purchase. Knowing how to tell me what I am being offered for the whole of the land in Mazan (...). He recommended his interests to his aunt [Henriette-Victoi
