Excerpt from An Appeal to the Parliament of Great Britain, on the Case of the Emperor Napoleon: In French and EnglishAS soon as the Count de 135 Cases reached the Cape of Good Hope, after hav ing been sent away from St. Helena, his first care was to sketch out the heads of a petition to the Parliament of Great Bri tain, stating the situa tion of the illustrious cap tive he had quitted at Longwood. In spite of the strict watch kept over him, he found means to send away this paper to the address of a distin. Guished member of the British legislature, entreat ing him to reduce the same to the form requisite for its being presented to Parliament. Whether it arrived too late for the ses sion, or obstacles occur red to the individual who was requested to present it, or whether it never reached its destination, the fact is, nothing has been heard of it up to this day.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
