Mathieu Dreyfus had a reproduction of the bordereau published by "Le Figaro". On 10 November "Le Matin" published a facsimile of the bordereau attributed to Dreyfus. They established that the infamous bordereau was not written by Alfred Dreyfus. Pellieux called the "bordereau" "absolute proof of Dreyfus's guilt". By coincidence the writing of Dreyfus showed a likeness to the writing of the bordereau. Detailed discussions on the bordereau showed that Captain Dreyfus could not be the author. This note later became known as "the bordereau". He even wrote that "the nature of the writing on the bordereau excludes disguised handwriting". Paty de Clam proceeded to read out the exact words of the "bordereau". They discussed in particular the bordereau, which was the proof of guilt of Esterhazy. This is what he had done notably in 1894, the year of the bordereau.
