By the summer of 1792, Lindet argued that Louis XVI had realized his counter-revolutionary efforts had proved futile, and he would have to take military action.

Although his role may not have been spectacular, Jean-Baptiste Lindet came to be the embodiment of the growing middle class that came to dominate French politics during the Revolution.

At the time of trial, Lindet was to have Charles Barbaroux read the document, due to his fatigue.

On 10 May Babeuf, who had taken the alias Tissot, was arrested ; many of his associates were gathered by the police on order from Lazare Carnot: among them were Augustin Alexandre Darthé and Philippe Buonarroti, the ex-members of the National Convention, Robert Lindet, Jean-Pierre-André Amar, Marc-Guillaume Alexis Vadier and Jean-Baptiste Drouet, famous as the postmaster of Saint-Menehould who had arrested Louis XVI during the latter's Flight to Varennes, and now a member of the Directory's Council of Five Hundred.

Jean-Baptiste Robert Lindet ( May 2, 1746, Bernay, Eure – February 17, 1825 ) was a French politician of the Revolutionary period.

His brother, Robert Thomas Lindet, became a constitutional bishop and member of the National Convention.

Initially close to the Girondists, Lindet was very hostile to King Louis XVI, provided a Rapport sur les crimes imputés à Louis Capet ( December 20, 1792 ) – a report of the king's alleged crimes – and voted for the king's execution without appeal.

Jean-Baptiste Lindet, being a member of the Commission of Twenty-one, had an instrumental role in the execution of Louis XVI and drew up the accusation in the acte enonciatif.

Lindet wrote his accusation as a chronological retelling of the treasonous acts of the King, beginning in May 1789 and spanning until August 10, 1792.

Beginning with the eve of the calling of the Estates-General, Lindet argued that Louis XVI intended to use the representatives to raise money for the bankrupt crown, and then send them on their way with few reforms.

In his accusation against the king, Lindet focused strongly on his duplicity and betrayal against the actions of the French Revolution.

Another inconsistency in the trial of Louis XVI was that the argument presented against him by Lindet disregarded any account of the Revolutionary violence against the King, thus presenting his accusation as a series of inexcusable crimes against the Revolution.

Lindet was unique in the demographics of the Committee of Public Safety, in that he was forty-six, where the average age of the members was thirty.

Lindet was the department head, or the " examiner " of the National Food Commission.

For one of these missions, Lindet was sent to the districts of Rhône, Eure, Calvados and Finistère, for the purpose of suppressing revolts.

The French Directory offered Lindet the opportunity to become its spy in Basel, but he turned down the mission.

Lindet returned to France some time before his death in Paris.

** H. Turpin, Thomas Lindet ( Bernay, 1886 ).

He returned to the Thermidorian Convention on 8 March 1795, and was noted for his moderation, especially after defending Prieur de la Marne and Jean-Baptiste Robert Lindet.

This new building, 130 meters longer, was built between 1753 to 1756 with Lindet as architect.

The easiest thing would be to sell out to Al Budd and leave the country, but there was a stubborn streak in him that wouldn't allow it.

No doubt there would be men guarding the horses.

Evidently this was a precaution so that mounts would be available in an emergency.

And here all the time you knew the Sioux would be using our rifles on them!!

It's not the kind of thing that a man would be proud of.

The coyote was calling again, and he hoped that this time there would be no other sounds to interrupt it.

There would still be plenty of moments of regret and sadness and guilty relief.

He had been worried that with Miller and Rankin added to the escape party they would be short.

She had offered to walk, but Pamela knew she would not feel comfortable about her child until she had personally confided her to the care of the little pink woman who chose to be called `` Auntie ''.

Indian ghosts would not impinge upon his nights, nor would his days be haunted by the dimly-outlined, ill-conceived figure of her benighted ancestor.

She had the feeling that, under the mouldering leaves, there would be the bodies of dead animals, quietly decaying and giving their soil back to the mountain.

She began it deliberately, so that none of her words would be lost on him.

He knew that anything a brainy little lady like her had to say would be plumb important, as well as pleasin' to the ear, and he didn't want to miss a word of it.

Otherwise, she would be baited into a tantrum -- teased and provoked until she lost control of herself, and thus lost still another battle in the maddening struggle of Tom Lord Vs. Joyce Lakewood.

It poured out of him like an electric current, a feeling that the muscles and nerves of his fine-drawn body were coiling for action, and that that action would be all that he anticipated.

He, McBride, would be cited as in the wrong, and he, Lord, would go scot-free, an officer who had only done his duty, though perhaps too energetically.

And nothing would be done about it.

Supper would be ready within the hour.

Which would you be most scairt of -- a dry-gulchin' or a shoot-down ''??

Probably his horse would be close to where he was hiding.

There was a feeling that this mission would be canceled like all the others and that this muddy wet dark world of combat would go on forever.

Yet long before the scheduled time for return, Donovan would be watching for every speck in the sky.
