Eugène Sue, Esquires, Antony Thouret, Pascal Duprat, Chanay, Fayolle,

of the Right, who since the preceding day had suddenly become Red in the
eyes of the coups d'état; Oudinot, Piscatory, and Thuriot de la
Rosière.
They confined these separately, and they set at liberty one by one the
forty who remained.
