Excerpt from The Principal Speeches of the Statesmen and Orators of the French Revolution, 1789-1795, Vol. 1: Mirabeau, Vergniaud, Gensonn???, Guadet, Louvet, Cambon I ought to acknowledge my obligations to many kindly helpers, who have encouraged me in the somewhat laborious task of editing these speeches, but I must content myself with mentioning the names of M. Charles de Lomenie, worthy son of a worthy sire and his succemor in that great work Les Mirabeau, who has been kind enough to answer many minute queries of mine on the text of Mirabeau's speeches; and of Dr. Robinet, the learned authority on Danton, who lent me his copy of the rare brochure, con taining Robespierre's Notes for saint-just, which I have printed in an Appendix. I have adopted the English use of capital letters and of punctuation; my texts, especially those of Barere, justified this procedure, and I remembered that I was editing for English students chiefly, though I have been assured by several distinguished French workers on the period that the present collection contains so many reports and speeches never reprinted that it may be of use to them also. The notes I have kept as short as possible. In my biographies I have made frequent use of M. Jules Guifirey's Les Con rcnfionmls, in which for the first time a. Real canon for the spelling of the names of the deputies of the Convention, after examination of their own signatures, has been laid down.
