Message definition (CP 02906)
<ref name="n9"> C'est Lucien Daudet qui avait présenté Louis Gautier-Vignal à Proust en juin 1914. Dans sa lettre du [7 septembre 1914], Proust demandait à Mme Catusse si elle connaissait ce jeune homme qui, lui aussi, résidait à Nice (voir CP 02823 ; Kolb, XIII, n° 172). Mme Catusse a dû se renseigner et, dans sa réponse (non retrouvée), faire part d'une piètre estime à l'égard de cette famille dont la notabilité était fort récente. Originaire de Nice, Albert Gautier (dit Gautier-Vignal), père du jeune homme, avait été fait comte par le pape Léon XIII en 1895, et était consul général de Roumanie à Nice. Il était notamment président ou vice-président de plusieurs sociétés sportives niçoises. Louis Gautier-Vignal lui-même avait été l'élève de Roland Garros. Répondant au renseignement fourni par Mme Catusse (dans une lettre qui ne nous est pas parvenue), Proust a sans doute admis qu'il ne connaissait ni ne fréquentait cette famille, source du malentendu qu'il essaie ici de lever.
