unusual facts about Representatives on mission



Claude Antoine, comte Prieur-Duvernois

In 1793 he was a representative on mission surveying the ports of Lorient and Dunkirk, but he was arrested in Normandy upon the fall of the Girondists (June 1793) by the rebel authorities of Caen, and only released in July 1793 after the defeat of their forces at Vernon.
