Whether the Son of Louis XVI. and
Mario Antoinette Wat Murdered or
Died or Was Spirited Away Is an
Enigma Without a Solution.
, Every healthy minded man or wom
an loves a mystery, and, fortunately
for the world, history has provided
one or two problems wblcb have been
worn threadbare wit turnt revealing
their secrets. Among these Is the fate
of the nlue-year-old son of Louis XVI.
and Marie Antoinette, which Mme.
Louise Latour recently dealt with In
a lecture io London.
A child Judicially murdered or else
spirited away, another substituted for
him to die and to be burled under a
false name, the people who reported of
these things silenced or poisoned, the
period of events comparatively recent
the story sounds incredible, but it
rests on a basis of established fact.
The dauphin, a delicate child of nine,
was removed from his uother and
friends and given to the crre of Simon
the brutal savetler. and his wife.
After this all remains obscure except
thatwhlle the boy was In their care
the Simons gave up their post In It
self rather strange, as it was a .lucra
tive one and on the day of the change
of residence the substitution Is sup
posed to have taken place. In the even
ing a child in bed was shown to tht
emissaries of the convention, and the
next morning he was removed to a
smaller room with the door nailed up.
the only air coming In by the grille
through which his food was passed.
So he remained until he became so 111
that Dr. Dessau it. who had often been
to Versailles in the old days, was sum
moned to attend him and was amazed
to find a scrofulous and dying boy.
Ce n'est pas le petit dauphin!"
("That is not the little Dauphin!") he
blurted out imprudently, and a day or
two later he died by poison.
Other doctors were brought who
were unacqualuted with the royal chil
dren, and the child died and was bur
led in his assumed character. He is
generally supposed to have been a lad
called Gombeau. and his mother was
actually seen by people In America,
where she admitted the wickedness of
having sold her dying son when she
was in a condition of extreme poverty.
La femme Simon talked, but her
words were discredited by the authori
ties, who declared she was drunken
and garrulous. Nevertheless, on her
deathbed she Confessed to a priest and
a nurse that a substitute bad been put
in the dauphin's place.
Such are the historical facts as re
lated by Mme. Latour, and to account
for them two theories have been de
duced, says a writer In the London
Times. The first. In which Mme. La-
tour believes, was that the dauphin
was judicially murdered by Simon in
the temple and the dying Gombeau
put In bis place to bide the crime from
the world. Of the second, that the
child escaped alive from his prison.
