Strona 170 - Item. Ten thousand francs to the subaltern officer Cantillon, who has undergone a trial upon the charge of having endeavoured to assassinate Lord Wellington, of which he was pronounced innocent. Cantillon had as much right to assassinate that ofigarckist, as the latter had to send me to perish upon the rock of St. Helena.
