SAND George (Aurore Dupin, baronne Dudevant, dite) [Paris, 1804 - Nohant, 1876], romancière française
Autograph letter, signed "George", addressed to Eugène Pelletan. Nohant, end of August 1841]; 4 pages in-8°. "My dear Pelletan, I believe that after all due consideration, we can accept the 1,000 francs that Mrs. Sovereign offers to pay on behalf of her husband, on condition that she will always promise in his name the regularization of the affair according to the bases that I have laid down, that is to say the signature of the small treaty whose model I have sent you.

Forgive me for bothering you with this nonsense when you are sick and immersed no doubt more seriously in your sufferings. Let me hear from you and tell me you're better. I have high hopes for your business. It seems to me that by taking a line of thought and following it you have to do something good. The expression you've got. Do you want to put your little girl in our village as a nursemaid? She'll be fine there, we'll find you a good woman, there are still some in our beautiful country. I will watch over her, and in my absence my brother and my friend Papet, who is a good doctor and with a big heart, will give her all th
