• Adolphe Corthey
  The article mourns the loss of Adolphe Corthey, a prominent figure in the world of fencing, who passed away at the age of sixty-six. Corthey was a dedicated practitioner and instructor, having studied under notable masters such as Pons, Rue, Gabriel, and Graviche. Known affectionately as "le père Corthey," he maintained impressive physical strength through his constant practice of fencing, stick fighting, and weightlifting. While his technique was considered somewhat rough, his character was marked by kindness, warmth, and approachability. In addition to his contributions to fencing, Corthey was also a talented writer, focusing on topics related to fencing and theater. He notably invented the quadrangular-bladed sword and organized major historical fencing exhibitions for the Société d’Encouragement de l’Escrime.
• Adolphe Ruzé
  This chapter from "Amateurs et salles d'armes de Paris" by Adolphe Tavernier introduces Adolphe Ruzé, known as "the Artist," the second son of the renowned fencing master from Rue de la Bienfaisance. Born on November 13, 1857, in Foix, Ruzé began his fencing journey at seven under his father's tutelage. Despite his small stature, he compensates with sharp judgment, quick reflexes, and an artistic approach to fencing. His style is marked by precise one-two combinations, battement attacks, and rapid ripostes, often impressing audiences with his finesse. Ruzé is not only an exceptional fencer but also a skilled instructor, dedicated to teaching the Jean-Louis method. In addition to fencing, he is an accomplished marksman, having earned numerous medals for his shooting abilities. Tavernier praises Ruzé for his artistic approach and the admiration he garners in the fencing community.
