<ref name="n1"> Le catalogue Andrieux, vente du 12 mars 1928, lot n° 174, indique que cette lettre autographe est datée du 9 janvier 1915. Faute d'accès à l'original, nous ne pouvons vérifier si cette datation est exacte et autographe, ou inscrite par la destinataire. Proust affirmant avoir lu « avant-hier » le nom du frère de la destinataire parmi les mots au champ d'honneur, sa lettre devrait dater du 6 ou 7 janvier (voir la note 4 ci-après). Mais ces inexactitudes chronologiques ne sont pas rares dans sa correspondance. [PK, FL] </ref>

  1. The catalogue Andrieux, sale from 12 March 1928, lot no. 174, indicates that this handwritten letter is dated 9 January 1915. In the absence of the letter’s original, we cannot verify whether the date is correct and handwritten [by the addresser] or noted down by the addressee. The fact that Proust asserts having seen “the day before yesterday” the name of the addressee’s brother amid those who died for their country, dates the letter 6 or 7 January (see note 4 below). But these chronological inaccuracies are frequent in his correspondence. [PK, FL]
