These estafettes had a courier-like uniform, that is, a short green and gold jacket, a red waistcoat, white leather breeches, long boots, a gold-braided hat with the tricolour cockade, and a gold belt from which a long hunting-knife depended. They rode fast Norman mares, and in the streets of Paris everybody had to make way for them, as is done in London for the royal mail and the fire brigade.
Whenever the Emperor was at the Tuileries it was, for several years, his habit to drive out almost ev
...ery day in a phaeton, accompanied by an aide-de-camp. As a rule the equerry on duty presented himself every morning at eleven o'clock to take the sovereign's orders, and at the hour appointed for the drive (or ride, as the case might be) he returned to announce that the horses were ready. All the officers on duty that day, the aide-de-camp, the chamberlain, the prefect of the palace, and the orderlies, then mustered in the chamberlains' salon, through which the Emperor passed on his way out, every- thing which he might require, hat, overcoat, gloves, cane or riding-whip, being deposited on a table there.
