From Jouarre, de. Fargis travelled to Nancy; and from thence she was imprudent enough to despatch letters to the young Queen and to other high per- sonages, repeating her slanderous accusations against the minister. Scarcely had her messenger passed the frontier of Lorraine, than Richelieu's emissaries seized and despoiled him of his despatches, which were at once transmitted to Paris. "Amongst these papers," writes the Cardinal,* "were found letters addressed to the Queen, and others for M. le... Comte de Cramail, Mademoiselle du Tillet, and the Marquise de Sourdis. These letters contained mention of high crimes ; and discussed advantages to be derived from the death of the Cardinal. They also made allusion to the death of the King ; and mentioned the old project of marrying the Queen to Monsieur. They stated that the Queen- mother opposed the marriage of Monsieur with a princess of Mantua to please the Queen, as his Majesty's health was apparently greatly on the decline. They testified to intimate correspondence * Journal de Richelieu.
