In the night, M. de Montmorency was awakened by the arrival of Augustus, Baron de Stael, who came to inform him that his mother's book on Ger- many was likely to be destroyed, in consequence of a new edict, which had very much the appearance of being made on purpose for the occasion. Her son, as soon as he had done his errand, left M. de Montmorency to soften the blow as much as possi* ble, but to urge his mother to return immediately afler she had taken breakfast ; he himself went back before ...day-light to see that her papers were not seized by the imperial police. Luckily, the proof* y Google 64 MADAME DE 8TAEL. sheets of her valuable work were saved. Some further notes on Germany she had with her in a small portable desk in the carriage. As they drew near her habitation she gave the desk to her young- est sou, who jumped over a wall, and carried it into the house through the garden. Miss Randall, an English lady, an excellent and much beloved friend, came to meet her on the road, to console her as ,much as she could under this great disappoint- ment.
