EGYPT CAPITULATION – DAMAS FRANÇOIS-ETIENNE: François-Etienne Damas (1764-1828) French General who joined the National Guard on 14th July 1789. He was appointed Chief of Head Quarters under Kleber and was noted for his conduct at the assault on Alexandria and during the French invasion of Egypt. Damas, appointed General, commanded troops in Egypt after Kleber´s death. On his return from Egypt, Damas was disgraced by Napoleon. Marshal Murat, as Grand Duke of Berg, would later appoint him as his Secretary of State and military Commander. Damas fought in the French invasion of Russia, distinguishing himself at the battle of Berezina. The restored King Louis XVIII appointed him Commander of the Garde Royale of Paris. An extremely interesting and historic L.S., `Damas´, three pages, folio, Cairo, Egypt, 18th March 1800, addressed to the “Soldiers of the Army”, in French. The letter bears the printed heading of the General Kleber, Head-Quarters of Cairo, with the motto and a vignette of the French Republic. The letter forwards to all French soldiers in Egypt the message received from the Commander of the English fleet, stating `Soldats, Voici la lettre qui vient de m´être adréssée par le Commandant en chef de la flotte anglaise dans la Méditerrannée, à bord du Vaisseau de S.M.B. La Reine Charlotte, le 8 Janvier 1800´ (Translation: “Soldiers, Here is the letter which has just been sent to me by the Commander-in-Chief of the English fleet in the Mediterranean, aboard the S.M.B. Queen Charlotte, January 8, 1800”) Further the letter lists all the conditions that the King of Great Britain establishes before accepting the French surrender, stating in part `Je vous préviens que j´ai reçu des ordres de Sa Majesté de ne consentir à aucune Capitulation avec l´Armée française que vous commandez en Egypte et en Syrie, à moins qu´elle ne mette bas les armes, qu´elle ne se rende prisonnière de guerre, n´abandonne tous les Vaisseaux et toutes les munitions… qu´en cas de Capitulation, je ne dois permettre à aucune troupe de retourner en France avant qu´elle n´ait été échangée… enfin, que les bâtiments qui seront rencontrés retournant en Europe avec des passeports accordés en consequence d´une Capitulation particulière avec une des puissances alliées, seront retenus comme prises, et tous les individus à bord considérés comme prisonniers de guerre´ (Translation: “I warn you that I have received orders from His Majesty not to consent to any Capitulation with the French Army that you command in Egypt and Syria, unless the French Army lays down its arms, unless the French Army surrenders, unless they abandon all ships and all ammunition... that in the event of Capitulation, I must not allow any troops to return to France before they have been exchanged... finally, that the vessels which will be encountered returning to Europe with passports granted as a result of a particular Surrender with one of the Allied Powers, will be retained as prisoners, and all individuals on board considered prisoners of war”) The copied message of the British fleet Commander is signed by a clerk “Keith”, same happens with Kleber´s signature beneath a harangue to French soldiers, saying `Soldats, nous saurons répondre à une telle insolence par des victoires, préparez-vous à combattre´ (Translation: “Soldiers, we will know how to respond to such insolence, with victories, be ready for the fight”) Signed at the conclusion by Damas in his capacity as “Le Chef de l´Etat Major Général”. Two days after the present letter was written, Kléber defeated the Mamlukes at the Battle of Heliopolis on 20th March 1800, but after this last victory the Anglo-Ottomans commenced their land offensive. The French were defeated by the British in the Battle of Alexandria on March 21st, surrendered at Fort Julien in April and finally Cairo fell on 27th June. Overall minor age wear and small creasing, mostly to edges. With some very small warm holes. G Jean-Baptiste Kleber (1753-1800) French General during the French Revolutionary wars. Kleber was also a trained architect. Best remembered for suppressing the Vendée Revolt. He accompanied Napoleon in the Egyptian Campaign. When Napoleon appointed Kleber as Commander of the French forces he was assassinated in Cairo on 14th June 1800, only three months after the present letter was issued. Lord Keith (1746-1823) George Keith Elphinstone, 1st Viscount Keith. British naval officer during the Napoleonic Wars. On 30th August 1801 the French General Menou offered to surrender and proposed terms, which were considered, partly accepted and in many details amended, by the British Admiral Lord Keith and General John Hely-Hutchinson. Under Article 16 of the capitulation "the Arabian manuscripts, the statues, and the other collections which have been made for the French Republic, shall be considered as public property, and subject to the disposal of the generals of the combined army." This led to the transfer to British possession of the Rosetta Stone.
