About Gabriel Syveton
- Gabriel Syveton (21 February 1864 – 8 December 1904) was a French historian and politician. He was one of the founding members of the patriotic and anti-Dreyfus Ligue de la patrie française. He was elected as deputy for the Seine in 1902. He was involved in scandal when he exposed the existence of a card file compiled from Freemason reports on public officials. It listed practicing Catholics, who should be passed over for promotion.
- He died, apparently from suicide, the day before being required to appear in court after physically attacking the Minister of War in the Chamber of Deputies.
