I have been informed of a law or decree of the Convention which subjects foreigners born in any of the countries at war with France to arrestation and imprisonment.
The guard came about a month after in the night, and took away the landlord Georgeit; and the scene in the house finished with the arrestation of myself.
My expulsion being thus effected, the two committees of Public Safety and of General Surety, of which Robespierre was the dictator, put me in arrestation under the former decree for imprisoning persons born in England.
Secondly, I am put in arrestation because I am a foreigner.
Committees of Public Safety and Surety General, for putting me inarrestation as a foreigner, and conveying me to the prison of the Luxembourg.
What evidences of "a fatal and stunting arrestation of development"!
And the scene in the house finished with the arrestation of myself.
They therefore, for this time, confined themselves to single degrees of accusation and arrestation against the most valuable part of the National Convention.
They are not yet in prison, but under "arrestation in their homes"; death seemed inevitable while Marat lived, but Charlotte Corday has summoned a new leader.
