A HISTORICAL ROMANCE OF THE SUPPRESSION OF THE FRENCH MONARCHY.
BY ALEXANDER DUMAS. Author of Balsamo the Magician, Monte Cristo, The Queen's Necklace, The Three Musketeers, Chicot the Jester, The Countess of Charny, The Knight of Redcastle, etc. TRANSLATED FROM THE LATEST PARIS EDITION. BY HENRY LLEWELLYN WILLIAMS. New York: J. S. OGILVIE PUBLISHING COMPANY, 57 Rose Street.
France had been changed to a limited monarchy from an absolute one, and King Louis XVI. had solemnly sworn to defend the new Constitution. But it had been remarked by shrewd observers that he had not attended the Te Deum at the Paris Cathedral, with the members of the National Assembly: that is, he would tell a lie but not commit perjury.
