FRAMED 1824 LETTER FROM LAFAYETTE
FRAMED 1824 LETTER FROM LAFAYETTE WITH ENGRAVED PORTRAIT OF THE SAME YEAR A translation into English from the original French: "Paris, 14 May, 1824. I quickly profit, my dear general, by the departure of Mr. Garcia del Rio, former Foreign Affairs Minister to Lima, now in charge of the Peruvian mission to London. You will have seen Mr. Rich: The information relative to his young compatriot has been transmitted to the parent of our lady friend. Before receiving it he has tried to get in touch with the Pylave, he had not been able to receive permission that the secret be lifted nor that the money be sent: obstinately goes on attributing to him the acts of his brother. Besides, our correspondent shows much zeal, though little trust in his means: but the explanations that he must have received his hopes by showing that he is not alone will raise, I think, to show he is not alone in the unjustly persecuted misfortu(nate).
You will have seen the Gal Torrijos too: he was gone and it was too late for his comrades too when one wanted to warn them of the little recourse he would find in England. The situation of the patriot prisoner, the constitutional prisoner and all of the friends of liberty in Europe is very sad at present. One need not be desperate. But the heart bleeds for those who suffer and endures for obtaining so little relief for them.
My daughter and my sister saw, as they passed, my dear general: they told you my projects for the United States. I do not know precisely when I shall leave yet: I can hardly believe you would arrive before me, nevertheless, I enclose a few letters in the hope of embracing you on this land of freedom. You know my feelings too well for me to try to express them, I give myself with all my heart to renewing my tender friendship."
Framed in gold box frame, together in two window mat, under glass, 16 1/2" x 20", 9 12" x 11" letter, folded and foxed, 8" x 5" stipple engraving.
Lafayette returned to the US on Aug 14, 1824, arriving at Staten Island.
