Autograph letter, signed "V.H.", addressed to Eugène Pelletan. October 2; 1 page in-8°.
"I have just read your first letter, and now I am ambitious, for I aspire to the others, which you promise. What a beautiful, strong page! All the greatness of your mind is in this deep historical dig. What a disturbing demonstration of atavism! You write letters for everyone and everything, and yet I take them for myself. Forgive me for this fatuity, for you know that it comes from my fraternal friendship with you, my eloquent and valiant colleague. I don't thank you, I love you. V.H."
