<The Representatives Represented>: (25) Ferdinand Flocon; At first sight, you perhaps took this person for a Russian prince, slightly Cossack, which cannot have failed to afflict profoundly his quality as a watchful Republican. Ferdinand Flocon was for some weeks Minister of Agriculture, and one of his first acts was to shave his chin, formerly embellished with a full beard. He had even more excellent intentions, but lacked the time to carry them out.
