Imagine the courtyard of the hotel where we were to get out filled with angry people armed with pikes, who surrounded the carriage in such crowds that it could not enter the courtyard. We were therefore absolutely obliged to leave it outside and cross that courtyard on foot amid the hoots of these people who said openly they wished to kill us. Of all the awful moments I have known, this was one of those which struck me most, and the horrible impression of it will never leave me. Entering the ho...use at last, they made us eat a miserable meal. In spite of all the threats of the ferocious populace to massacre every one, they did not go farther and we started from fipernay about six in the evening. Just then they came to tell us that deputies of the National Assembly were arriving. These were Pe*tion, Barnave, Maubourg, Dumas, commandant of the Garde of the Assembly, and his nephew La Eue. At the moment that the deputies approached our carriage, an unfortunate priest who had not taken the oath was close by it ; the peasants, who wished to kill him, had thrown him on the ground, but a Garde on horseback picked him up, put him behind him and rode up to us.
