Letter to Henry de Mauduit - May 10, 1951 -
1 page, quarto - Good condition despite a small marginal tear, some foxing, and a strip of tape on the back at the top margin - A photographic portrait of General De Gaulle is included - OFIC stamp on the back -
Interesting letter: He knows that he was only running in the legislative elections in Côtes-du-Nord out of a sense of duty - He has decided to ask Mr. Terrenoire to head the Rassemblement list and relieve him of this obligation - He is counting on him for other tasks - [Henry de Mauduit was Governor of Ivory Coast and then Mauritania - From 1949 to 1951, he was Governor of Chad]
