Excerpt from The Private Journal of Aaron Burr, Vol. 2 of 2: Reprinted in Full From the Original Manuscript in the Library of Mr. William K. Bixby of St. Louis, Mo;; With an Introduction, Explanatory Notes, and a Glossary Paris, May 4, 1810. Arrived at Montmorency at three, in a voiture, with Miss Helen M. Williams, and Mr. and Mrs. le Harpe. After dinner, promenade the village. Ascended the mountain. M´lle. Williams much fatigued. Montmorency, 6. Cold, northerly wind for three days past. This is the neighbourhood in which Rousseau lived and died. The trees where was given the baiser fatal; the house of Eloise; the walks they frequented. Every spot hereabout is consecrated by his memory. 7. In the valle de Montmorency. At nine set off for town. Cold, chilly, raining. Mons. Froissant in voiture with M´lle. Williams. I, from choice, having something to say to Mr. S., in chaise with him. Arrived at half past ten. Off to P.´s; the diablesse has gone to the country too. Pure vengeance. Four times have I walked there (half a league) today, and at nine this evening she had not arrived. In the A. M. went to make my peace with Mrs. Robertson. She is too good to harbour malice, and received me very kindly. Stayed two hours, reading over papers of business and talking of matrimony, on which head we have grave quarrels, for I am dead against it. What! says she, with temper and astonishment, would you advise me to, &c. "Madam, soyez independence." Took soup there, and parted friends. On my return, called on Captain Lawson. He was all in the bustle of packing up and going off in half an hour. At eight, however, this evening, he called to say that he should not go till six in the morning of to-morrow, and I am now actuellement writing to my Juno and Minerva. Called also on Swediaur.
