" The Cardinal left theKing's chamber, with the Baron de Breteuil, who gave him in custody to alieutenant of the Body Guard, with orders to take him to his apartment. M. D'Agoult, aide-major of the Body Guard, afterwards took him into custody, and conducted him to his hotel, and thence to the Bastille. But while theCardinal had with him only the young lieutenant of the Body Guard, who wasmuch embarrassed at having such an order to execute, his Eminence met hisheyduc at the door of the Salon of ...Hercules; he spoke to him in German andthen asked the lieutenant if he could lend him a pencil; the officer gavehim that which he carried about him, and the Cardinal wrote to the AbbeGeorgel, his grand vicar and friend, instantly to burn all Madame deLamotte's correspondence, and all his other letters. [The Abbe Georgel thus relates the circumstance: The Cardinal, at thattrying moment, gave an astonishing proof of his presence of mind;notwithstanding the escort which surrounded him, favoured by the attendantcrowd, he stopped, and stooping down with his face towards the wall, as ifto fasten his buckle, snatched out his pencil and hastily wrote a fewwords upon a scrap of paper placed under his hand in his square red cap.
