The French Statistics Agency has sent an annual census letter to Napoleon at his former birthplace of Ajaccio. The Telegraph reports that 'the current resident of 3 Rue Saint Charles, clearly had a sense of humour – he or she marked it 'return to sender', scrawling a note beneath the address: "Died in 1821 – please forward with a prayer to Saint Peter.'
