A great polemicist in the pages of his newspapers (La Lanterne, La Marseillaise, L'Intransigeant), he defended radical and even extremist political options (anticlerical, nationalist, favorable to the Commune, socialist and antidreyfusard) which earned him the nickname of "The man with twenty duels and thirty trials." He managed to escape the prison of Noumea in 1874.

Lettre de remerciement au journaliste Philibert AUDEBRAND (1815-1906) pour son article : "( ) je ne pouvais pas espérer un article aussi charmant et aussi sympathique. Vous êtes un ange et un vrai ami. Les dernières lignes m'ont particulièrement touché. Je n'ai pas besoin de vous dire pourquoi, d'autant plus qu'il y avait du courage à dire ce que vous dites. Merci donc deux mille fois et tout à vous. Henri Rochefort". Journaliste et homme politique français, ROCHEFORT est déporté à Nouméa (Nouvelle-Calé-donie) en 1873, avec Louise Michel, et s'en évade l'année suivante. Boulangiste, il est condamné une 2nde fois à la déportation, en 1889, par contumace, ayant suivi le gal Boulanger dans son exil. On joint 1 photographie originale (140 x 102), portrait de H. Rochefort, avec en-dessous un bas de lettre signée "à vous, Henri Rochefort", tous 2 contrecollés sur carton fort (220 x 130) (coin inf. du support cassé.) ainsi qu'1 carte de visite "Henri de Rochefort".

Condición: Good. 1 page, partly manuscript. 25 x 17.6 cm.Citation à comparaître délivrée à Rochefort comme témoin dans le procès de la veuve du colonel Henry contre Joseph Reinach, 23 janvier 1899. ., Reinach is best known as the champion of Alfred Dreyfus. At the time of the original trial, he attempted to secure a public hearing of the case, and, in 1897, he allied himself with Auguste Scheurer-Kestner to demand its revision. He denounced in the Siècle the Henry forgery and Esterhazy's complicity. His articles in the Siècle aroused the fury of the anti-Dreyfus party, especially as Reinach was a Jew and was accused by some of taking up Dreyfus's defence on racial grounds.He lost his seat in the Chamber of Deputies and, having refused to fight Henri Rochefort, an anti-Dreyfus journalist, eventually brought an action for libel against the latter. Finally, Dreyfus was pardoned, Reinach wrote a history of the case that was completed in 1905. Henri Dutrait-Croyon's Joseph Reinach, historien (Paris: A. Savaète, 1905), a violent detailed rebuttal of Reinach's history that "became a bible for that anti-Semitic section of French public opinion convinced of the culpability of Dreyfus."[. .Henry was made a knight in the Imperial Order of the Dragon of Annam, received the Colonial Medal, and was made a knight in the Legion of Honor in 1884. He married the daughter of an innkeeper from Peronne in April 1892. The manner in which he accused Captain Dreyfus before the court martial in 1894 earned him the most laudatory remarks from the head of the general staff office. In 1895, he was assessed as being an "excellent servant, with an unwavering enthusiasm and devotion [who] provides the highest services to the section." In 1896, it was noted that he "absolutely deserved to be promoted." In 1897, he was again pointed out as being "an excellent officer: extremely devoted and energetic [who] absolutely deserved the praise he has received from his superiors." He was promoted to lieutenant colonel on 10 November 1897, and he no doubt thought that he would triumph after Esterhazy's acquittal in January 1898 and Zola's conviction the following month.But the one whose hierarchy referred to as "an excellent officer on whom one may count in any circumstances" pushed his enthusiasm too far when he forged false telegrams and a wire meant to compromise Colonel Picquart and, in 1896, a forged letter from the Italian military attaché to his German counterpart. When it was revealed to Captain Cuignet that this letter was a forgery, Colonel Henry confessed and was arrested and put in the Mont Valérien fort on 30 August 1898. He was found around 5:00 p.m. the following day with his throat cut and his razor folded. The head of the general staff office resigned, and the War Minister was changed four times in a month.For Henry's widow, who was born Berthe Amélie Bertincourt in 1872, and for his son, "a little French goy whose father was killed by the Jews," La Libre Parole started a fund that received, in less than a month, 131,000 francs in donations. The 25,000 donors to the "Henry monument" wanted to allow her to take Joseph Reinach to court. Her pension was liquidated in November 1898 for a total of 1,667 francs, but, in two judgments handed down on 12 June 1902 and 28 May 1903, she and her son were each awarded 500 francs in damages for insults to her husband's memory.

A sub-inspector for the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, he resigned to work at Le Figaro before founding his own paper, La Lanterne. A deputy from the Seine department in January 1871, he was sentenced to be deported to New Caledonia after the Commune. He escaped in March 1874, and was amnestied in 1880. He then founded L'Intransigeant, which denounced-in tens of thousands of copies-"parliamentary filth." Reelected deputy in 1885, he resigned the following year when he failed to obtain a general amnesty. He supported General Boulanger, which earned him another conviction from the High Court for "conspiracy against the safety of the State.".He was amnestied in 1895, and joined the ranks of the nationalists and the anti-Dreyfusards, accusing Joseph Reinach of having faked the evidence against Esterhazy. On 13 December 1897, L'Intransigeant published the story of a letter from the German emperor naming "Captain Dreyfus throughout." The governmental refutation met with "only incredulity among the enlightened apostles of the nationalist gospel" (M. Paléologue).In 1898, as president of a marginal French socialist party, Rochefort denounced Jaurès as "a sergeant recruiter in the service of the syndicate of treason." On 18 October, he wrote that his dream would be to line up the judges of the Court of Cassation, have an executioner cut off their eyelids, gouge out their eyes, and then place them on a large pillory with a sign reading "This is how France punishes the traitors who sell her to Germany!".His paper denounced the "syndicate" of the Dreyfusards, and supported the anti-Dreyfusards who, at Rennes, nourished the idea that the captain was the incarnation of treason, calling the line of soldiers who turned their back on Dreyfus to discourage death threats a "dishonor guard."He saw anti-Dreyfusism as a means to attack bourgeois values and Jewish financiers, but refused to write for L'Action Française. The last of his 13,000 articles appeared in La Patrie before his death at Aix-les-Bains in the Savoie department, on 1 July 1913.

Reelected deputy in 1885, he resigned the following year when he failed to obtain a general amnesty. He supported General Boulanger, which earned him another conviction from the High Court for "conspiracy against the safety of the State.".He was amnestied in 1895, and joined the ranks of the nationalists and the anti-Dreyfusards, accusing Joseph Reinach of having faked the evidence against Esterhazy. On 13 December 1897, L'Intransigeant published the story of a letter from the German emperor naming "Captain Dreyfus throughout." The governmental refutation met with "only incredulity among the enlightened apostles of the nationalist gospel" (M. Paléologue).In 1898, as president of a marginal French socialist party, Rochefort denounced Jaurès as "a sergeant recruiter in the service of the syndicate of treason." On 18 October, he wrote that his dream would be to line up the judges of the Court of Cassation, have an executioner cut off their eyelids, gouge out their eyes, and then place them on a large pillory with a sign reading "This is how France punishes the traitors who sell her to Germany!".His paper denounced the "syndicate" of the Dreyfusards, and supported the anti-Dreyfusards who, at Rennes, nourished the idea that the captain was the incarnation of treason, calling the line of soldiers who turned their back on Dreyfus to discourage death threats a "dishonor guard."He saw anti-Dreyfusism as a means to attack bourgeois values and Jewish financiers, but refused to write for L'Action Française. The last of his 13,000 articles appeared in La Patrie before his death at Aix-les-Bains in the Savoie department, on 1 July 1913.
