Chaux also played an important role in the barbaric act of sending 132 Nantais to Paris under cruel conditions. On September 3 1794 Carrier was put on trial before the Revolutionary Tribunal. He was found guilty and was executed in December. Pierre Chaux was arrested in July of 1794 for the role he played in the drownings. He appeared before the Tribunal in October 1794 and was convicted. He was the beneficiary of the amnesty of October 26 1795 decided by the Thermidorian Convention. The two pamphlets at hand were published in order to present his case to the convention. The first is signed in print by Chaux at Angers and dated September 19 1795. The second is dated September 26 1795. The pamphlets includes numerous statements by participants in the French revolution including Carrier General Lamberty Foucher and Villers Herault-Sechelles etc. At the head of No. 5 is the statement "L'habitude des bonnes actions exclut l'idee du crime."
