Influential French physicist (1775–1836) who pioneered the discovery and understanding of electromagnetism; a unit of electric current was named in his honor. ALS in French, signed “A. Amepre,” one page both sides, 8 x 10.25, March 8, 1834. Handwritten letter to his friend Fauché, thanking him for the assistance provided to his son-in-law. In part (translated): "If you believe that this offers no benefit of any kind, I kindly ask you to let me know so that I can inform him otherwise—that the matter is resolved and that he simply needs to return before the date you specify. In any case, I implore you, as you have promised me, to notify the military administration of this temporary absence. According to what Mr. Ride was told in the war office, he believed that the paper allowing him to collect his quarterly payment at the beginning of next month would be delivered to me. It seems this was an error. In any case, after writing to the administration, I beg you, please, to let me know, even in a brief note sent through the post, what I should write to my son-in-law, and I will write to him immediately." In fine condition, with ink erosion affecting one line of text and a couple of small edge tears.
