Dauban； ibid。； 35。 （Note by Quevremont； Jan。； 1794。）： 〃The honest man

the Commune and of the Departments； without having a lump in his
throat。 … Offices are mostly filled by creatures of the Commune who
very often have neither talent nor integrity。 Again； the
denunciations； always welcomed； however frivolous and baseless they
may be； turn everything upside down。
