Add to basketLettre autographe signée dAlexandre Willemain (1818-1890), médecin, inspecteur des eaux à Vichy à partir de 1853, adressée à Madame et Monsieur Paul Schützenberger, ce dernier étant chimiste. Flaubert rencontra le docteur Willemain pendant lhiver 1849-1850, en Égypte, où il était médecin sanitaire (voir le Voyage en Orient, éd. Maurice Bardèche, CHH, volume 10, p. 451). Flaubert le reçu à Croisset en octobre 1863. 2 pages et demie in-8. Vichy, 16 mai 1871. Résidu aux quatre coins de traces de colle à la dernière page pour montage. Willemain se souvient de son séjour auprès de ses amis. Il ne peut revenir pour linstant, débordé de travail quil est. Il salue le pharmacien et chimiste Hector Aubergier au passage. « Chers compatriotes et amis, Il y a aujourdhui huit jours à cette heure jarrivais à votre chaumière où, au milieu de cette belle nature jai été si heureux de vous revoir. Si cela est vrai, pourquoi, diriez-vous, Madame, ny êtes-vous pas retourné ? Parce quen vérité, je ne lai pu, malgré tout mon bon vouloir. Je suis courbaturé, jai mal à la gorge, résultat sans doute dun refroidissement que jai parfaitement ressenti. Et puis pour môter toute velléité de départ, les malades sont arrivés, et plus nombreux que jamais je ne les ai vus à pareille époque. Lun deux, un Anglais, gouverneur des Etablissement anglais en Chine ma été adressé par son médecin de Bordeaux, qui le recommande à toute ma sollicitude, et il la mérite par létat grave de sa santé. Je dois donc renoncer pour le moment à la réalisation dun rêve qui métait cher et qui me lest toujours, quoique vous en disiez Madame. Ro ??? ma tellement plu que je me () de lespoir de my rendre à la fin de la () puisquaujourdhui la route men est fermée. Ce que tiens à vous écrire, cest combien () heureux de votre visite. Le bouquet déglantiers et les fleurs des champs sont encore là dans la () où la vaillante fée les a déposés : mais elle a disparu. Deux heures après votre départ, la poste ma apporté une lettre, deviniez de qui ? De votre père qui ne se doutait pas, quand il mécrivait la veille, que javais le bonheur dêtre votre hôte. Veuillez dire à Monsieur Aubergier [le pharmacien et chimiste] quand vous le verrez, tout le regret que jéprouve de navoir pas pu me rendre à la () invitation. Recevez, cher confrère, une bien affectueuse poignée de main, et vous, Madame, agréez, je vous prie lassurance de mon respectueux attachement. A Willemain Je noublierai pas le panier de Mlle Marie et jespère faire avec elle au mois de septembre de longues promenades dans votre belle vallée ».
