Transport de mes meubles de l'évêché d'Agde commencé le 29 mars 1791, March 29 - May 21, 1791.

Inventory of the effects evacuated from the diocesan residence in Agde and transported to a nunnery ("religieuses noires") and other storage locations offered by private persons for safekeeping. There are three lists commenced on 29, 30 and 31 March 1791, in which are recorded the date of each shipment, the rooms where the items were removed from and the storage place. The author of the record appears to be the bishop himself, since the title says "my furniture," and various entries include such assertions of ownership. Nevertheless, the handwriting and the numerous misspellings seem to indicate that the inventory was dictated to a subaltern. Each list bears a fine signature and a mark, possibly of the bishop himself, Charles-François-Siméon de Saint-Simon Sandricourt.

3 items (11 leaves); 19 x 16 cm.
