A zealous royalist, he was arrested sixteen times, and finally transported to Guiana under the Directory. Shortly after his arrival at Cayenne he escaped, and after many adventures among the natives he returned to France. He engaged in new conspiracies under the consulate, and was a few years in prison. After the return of the Bourbons, Pitou received a small pension. WorksHe published Relation de mon voyage à Cayenne et chez les anthropophages (“Story of my journey to Cayenne and among the cannibals”; Paris, 1805).
