Part of the investigation following the execution of Robert-François Damien nicknamed "Robert le Diable" for the attempted assassination of Louis XV le Bien-Aimé. The second piece issued by Ysabeau.¶ The 5th of January 1757 Robert-François Damiens stabbed King Louis XV. The wound bled profusely and the King who feared he was dying made his confessions for his life of vice. Fearing that Damiens was working for the British or the Jesuits he was horribly tortured with red-hot pincers boiling oil molten lead and wax poured into his wounds. He still maintained that he was working on his own and had intended only to scare the King. He was presented to the nation as a monster Voltaire described him as "Le monstre est un chien qui aura entendu aboyer quelques chiens Enquêtes et qui aura pris la rage." He was condemned the 28 March and in the Place de Grève he was publicly tortured his body torn into pieces by horses and his still-living trunk burned on a large pyre with the ashes spread to the wind. The execution was a major spectacle for the city drawing large crowds. His house was destroyed and his family forced to change their name and leave the country. Robert le Diable. <br/><br/> unknown

Marked in notarial hand at bottom "collationne" indicating that this is an expédition official engrossed copy of a royal act not signed by Louis himself but valid as a legal instrument because it bears the countersignature of his empowered secretary.

In the Ancien Régime the expédition was the engrossed notarized copy of a royal act prepared for official or private use. Such documents were valid legal instruments even when lacking the King’s autograph as they bore the countersignature of a secrétaire du roi one of a small corps of royal secretaries empowered to issue acts in the monarch’s name. The Généralité de Tours an administrative and fiscal district centered on the city of Tours oversaw taxation legal recording and the enforcement of royal ordinances in the surrounding provinces. Documents on papier timbré stamped paper or parchment were required for most legal acts after the 1674 édit du timbre ensuring that the crown collected stamp duties on contracts wills property transfers and other instruments. 1402464.
