Reading edition
“Memoirs of Marie-Antoinette,” by Madame Campan, vol. ii. pp. 13, 14, 15, 286-7. Madame Campan has extracted the foregoing narrative, nearly word for word, from a newspaper of the time—the Journal des Débats. See the Abbé Soulavie’s “Mémoires Historiques et Politiques du règne de Louis XVI.,” vol. vi. p. 81, et seq., where the same account will be found quoted.
