[ Cap Français]: De l'Imprimerie de L'Assemblée Provinciale du Nor, 1790. 4pp. Bifolium. Minor toning, small red pencil mark on first page. Very good. Printed document by the citizens of the Parish of Marmelade, describing a letter sent to them by the leaders of another parish encouraging them to form a confederation. They go on to discuss their hope for peace and their dedication to remain loyal to the French nation and the King.
Written at the relative beginning of the French Revolution, this document demonstrates how much power loyalty to the monarchy still held over the communities located in French colonies. Rare, with only one copy located in OCLC, in the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris (Inventory #: WRCAM51130)
