King Louis XVI Signed Document Becomes Available for Purchase at Circa Savannah

Savannah, GA, April 05, 2008 --(PR.com)-- On January 20, 1793, the National Convention condemned Louis XVI to death, his execution scheduled for the next day. Louis spent that evening saying goodbye to his wife and children. The following day dawned cold and wet. Louis arose at five. At eight o'clock a guard of 1,200 horsemen arrived to escort the former king on a two-hour carriage ride to his place of execution. In October of 1793, the Queen Marie-Antionette was brought to trial and found guilty of treason.

This rare document, signed by the king as “Bon (good), Louis,” from February 7, 1790, authorizes a pension of 3,000 livres for Pajor de Marcheval. And now Circa Savannah is offering for this document for purchase.
