I'll give him directions. I'll receive my order this evening. I'm very happy to have finished my business more or less to my liking, except for the matter of my Endowment, which I'm not happy about. I think I will enter Spain with a Corps of troops that is meeting in Languedoc, see you tomorrow for details. I kiss you with all my heart... Have Jacques ride to fetch BAUDOUIN, if he is not in DIJON." - 1p in-4°
