Note 36 — Chapter V · CLAIRE PRADIER

Catalogue of an interesting collection of autograph letters of which the sale took place on Saturday, November 30th, 1912, page 21. Paris. Noël Charavay, 1912. In another note dated from Les Metz, Victor Hugo tells Claire “that he loves her with all his heart, and uses his best handwriting in writing to her, which is very praiseworthy in an old student like himself.” And he adds, “I kiss both your little peach-cheeks.” (Same, p. 22.)
