Gabriel Paul Othenin De Clron, Comte D'haussonvilleGabriel Paul Othenin de Clron, comte d'Haussonville (September 21, 1843 - September 1, 1924), was born at Gurcy-le-Chtel (Seine-et-Marne), the son of Joseph Othenin Bernard and married in 1865 Mlle Pauline d'Harcourt. He represented Seine-et-Marne in the National Assembly (1871) and voted with the Right Centre. Though he was not elected to the chamber of deputies he became the righthand man of his maternal uncle, the duc de Brogue, in the attempted coup of May 16. His Les tablissements pnitentiaires en France et aux colonies (1875) was crowned by the Academy, of which he was admitted a member on January 26, 1888. In 1891 the resignation of Henri Edouard Bocher from the administration of the Orleans estates led to the appointment of d'Haussonville as accredited representative of the comte de Paris in France. He at once set to work to strengthen the Orleanist party by recruiting from the smaller nobility the officials of the local monarchical committees. He established new Orleanist organs, and sent out lecturers with instructions to emphasize the modern and democratic principles of the comte de Paris; hut the prospects of the party were dashed in 1894 by the death of the comte de Paris. In 1904 he was admitted to the Academy of Moral and Political Science. The comte d'Haussonville published: - Sainte-Beuve, sa vie et ses uvres (1875)
