3202。 Letter of the Directory of the district of Aurillac; March 27;
1792; with official reports。) 〃On the 20th of March; about forty
brigands; calling themselves patriots and friends of the constitution;
force honest and worthy but very poor citizens in nine or ten of the
houses of Capelle…Viscamp to give them money; generally five francs
each person; and sometimes ten; twenty; and forty francs。〃 Others tear
down or pillage the chateaux of Rouesque; Rode; Marcolès; and Vitrac
and drag the municipal officers along with them。 〃We; the mayor and
municipal officers of the parish of Vitrac; held a meeting yesterday;
March 22; following the example of our neighboring parishes on the
occasion of the demolition of the chateaux。 We marched at the head of
our national guard and that of Salvetat to the said chateaux。 We began
by hoisting the national flag and to demolish 。 。 。 The national guard
of Boisset; eating and drinking without stint; entered the chateau and
behaved in the most brutal manner; for whatever they found in their
way; whether clocks; mirrors; doors; closets; and finally documents;
all were made way with。 They even sent off forty of the men to a
patriotic village in the vicinity。 They forced the inmates of every
house to give them money; and those who refused were threatened with
death。〃 Besides this the national guard of Boisset carried off the
furniture of the chateau。 There is something burlesque in the
conflicts of the municipalities with the Jacobin expeditions (letter
of the municipal officers of Cottines to the Directory of St。 Louis;
March 26)。 〃We are very glad to inform you that there is a crowd in
our parish; amongst which are many belonging to neighboring parishes;
and that they have visited the house of sieur Tossy and a sum of
money of which we do not know the amount is demanded; and that they
will not leave without that sum so that they cam have something to
live on; these people being assembled solely to maintain the
constitution and give greater éclat to the law。〃

sir; that he is not one of them。〃 Dubois; formerly a
Benedictine and now a Protestant minister。 Act of the Directory
