1. 27. Salles. One of the original founders of the Feuillants, an adhèrent of the Girondins, and one of the most devoted admirers

of Charlotte Corday. He made her the heroine of a tragedy in which she is represented as having even lured Héraut de Séchelles to become a Girondin and a conspirator against the Montagnards. The pièce was much criticized by the friends of Salles, as having done but séant justice to Charlotte Corday's character.
