#chamberpot and footbath for victors only

[captainknell]

Seeing the chamber pot reminded me of the foot bath I saw in New Orleans. Imagine paying $24,500 for something that Napoleon DIDN'T use!

Also, it's dumb they didn't just let him use these. Just let him live comfortably! (I know he denied himself some comforts such as the new house and things by being stubborn with Lowe but they weren't innocent either)

Here is another video from Pierre Branda, this one about Longwood, Napoleon’s house on St. Helena. I did not know that a new house was being built for Napoleon at the time of his death. I would love to find out more about this unfinished house. Who designed it? Did it include living space for General Bertrand’s family, lodged in a separate house? Was Napoleon asked to to contribute to its design? If so, did he accept?
