017136Alfred Naquet (1834-1916), chimiste, médecin, homme politique, promoteur du divorce. L.A.S., Versailles, 16 mars 1874, 2pœ in-8. A Philippe Bordone (1821-1892), médecin, chirurgien militaire dit le général Bordone. Très intéressante lettre faisant suite à la révocation du maire de Cavaillon, Aimé Boussot (1812-1892), par Mac-Mahon en février et les magouilles politiques de l'époque (les élections de 1871 dans le Vaucluse avaient déjà été invalidées par exemple). « Mon cher Bordone, Décidément, vous avez le temps de compléter votre dossier. La commission devant laquelle j'ai comparu le matin et qui s'attache surtout jusqu'ici aux faits de Cavaillon et du Thor va mander le préfet et fera faire probablement une enquête administrative. La validation ne viendra donc pas encore et si cela nous prive pour quelques temps du plaisir d'entendre [Alexandre] Ledru[-Rollin], cela nous permettra d'écraser plus complètement nos adversaires. Il serait peut-être bon quand le préfet viendra que quelqu'un de Cavaillon et du Thor vienne en même temps. [Raoul de] Billioti a été entendu aujourd'hui. Il a eu l'infamie de dire que Boussot avait tenue une maison de prostitution. [Alphonse] Gent averti de ce fait a demandé à être entendu et le sera jeudi [19 mars] à 1 heure. Il a porté immédiatement à la connaissance de Boussot le fait en question en lui laissant le soin de faire comme il l'entendra. Mais notre avis à tous est qu'il devrait être ici jeudi. Il y a la matière à un procès en diffamation qu'il ne faut pas négliger. Voyez si vous pouvez décider Boussot à venir. Biliotti a dit encore que la terreur rouge réglait dans l'arrondissement d'Apt à ce point qu'il n'avait pu y trouver d'afficheurs ni distributeurs (à Pertuis). Il a dit enfin qu'on avait fait des radiations nombreuses sur les listes électorales. Et , comme on lui demandait pourquoi on n'avait pas surveillé, il répondait : « Chez nous on n'en a pas l'habitude » Il faudrait trouver le n° de l'union et surtout l'affiche apposée par les légitimistes et qui incitent les citoyens à aller se faire inscrire. Une telle affiche a été apposée sur les murs d'Avignon. Ce sera la réponse. Ecrivez-moi. Tout à vous A Naquet ». Peu commun [401]
