Pierre-Gaspard CHAUMETTE (1763-1794) Prosecutor of the Commune of Paris, creator of the Fêtes de la Raison, arrested and guillotined with the Hébertistes. L.S., 28 pluviôse II (February 16, 1794), to a National Agent; 1 page in-4 with a letterhead and small vignette of the Commune of Paris. The law of 14 frimaire II, establishing the revolutionary government, foresaw that the laws would be read each decade in all the communes of France.
