Min career of atrocities, which TO the ihame

That a virtuous pofterity, which might
blame part of my public life, may not be igno-
rant of the fincere repentance and patriotic
fentments that accompanied my death, copies
of this letter have been expedited to fevera of
hcers in all French naval cations. Notwith-
fanding what your vile fiitterers fay to the con-
trary had your murder preceded my fuicide,
not only the prefent generation, but ages to
come, would have hailed me as deverer,
and revcred me as favour. Affairs, as well
rs ftatues, would then have been erected to
my memory. Tremble, tyrant You live alb
horred, and will expire with the CURES of The
Sniverfe following you even on the other iide
