Anecdotes, 1833.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/41150034

This memoir (267 pp. in French), including copies of letters and documents, concerns the 1730 abdication and subsequent imprisonment of King Victor Amedeus I of Sardinia. The French ambassador at Turin was apparently the author, but he states that he did not write it for publication. The title is "Anecdotes." A note on the inside front cover includes Henry Edward Fox's name and the statement that the manuscript was copied in the chancellery of the French amabassador at Turin, July 21, 1833. The handwriting of the note appears the same as that in our letters by Fox. The coat of arms on the inside front cover indicates that someone in the family of Lord Ilchester (Fox-Strangways) once owned this volume.
