MEJAN (Maurice). - Lot 174
MEJAN (Maurice). Lawyer, royalist publicist. Lawyer at the Parlement de Provence, in Paris and at the Cour de Cassation. Brother of Count Étienne Méjan. Autograph letter signed "M. Méjan". December 18, 1816. 1 page in-4, folded. Address on verso with remnants of seal. Interesting letter in the context of the Restoration. Méjan refers to a personal situation "rather worsened than improved" and requests a delay "until the end of January", while mentioning expected appointments "to Courts that have not been instituted". He expresses his confidence that he will be "understood in this work" and thus be able to satisfy his correspondent. A revealing document of administrative expectations and uncertainties under the Restoration, combining personal considerations and prospects of judicial appointment. A correct piece, with discreet historical content, but well situated in its political context.
