(July 17). 1 ½ page in-8. ... You will probably examine tomorrow a student of the Collège Louis le Grand Mr Basin... explains Vitet. This student's father wants Vitet to send a letter of recommendation to Monsieur Damiron. He adds: "If, however, it allows you not to be too unkind, you'll remember afterwards that you've given me great pleasure. I would add that if Mr Basin becomes a bachelier, he will not be one of those who would have done better not to be, as he belongs to excellent parents who are themselves quite enlightened... VITET contributed to La Revue française and La Revue des deux mondes, and was active in archaeology. GUIZOT created for him the position of Inspector General of Historic Monuments in 1830. Fidé
