Pierre André Gargas (
or
Gargaz), a schoolmaster of Thèze, was in 1761 sentenced to the galleys for twenty years, and was released in 1781. In 1782 his
Project of Universal Peace
was printed by Benjamin Franklin at Passy. There are two letters from Gargas to Jefferson in the Library of Congress, dated
December 15, 1785, and January 14, 1786, respectively, both signed “
Garga surnomé fransé,” and the former accompanied by a “
Brochure intitulée union souveraine.” In the
Catalogue of the Bibliotheque Nationale this edition is described as n.d. Another edition, or copy, by the same printer, has attached the
Correspondence entre Pierre-André Gargas e M. de Voltaire, 1766
