Description
These were in the hand of Gustave de Beaumont and were taken by White from the manuscript of volume 7 of Beaumont's Oeuvres Completes d'A. de Tocqueville. White took only those eighteen which he did not find in original or in copy in the Redier manuscripts, see below B.I.a.2. For an estimate of Beaumont's considerable omissions and alterations, consult White catalogue 1W below, E.IV.e. Beaumont's copies are still in the Tocqueville Tocqueville MSS, T:IV.A.1. Bonnel copied all but the first page of one letter (later corrected) from what White apparently labelled "Paquet 15". As for what may have happened to the originals, see Jardin comments in E.VI. -juin 1831, Sing Sing, to father (Bonnel copy from Beaumont copy, Tocqueville Tocqueville MSS, Paquet "15", T:IV.A.1) -9 juin 1831, New-York, to Vtesse (Emilie?)
