ST PIERRE MARTINIQUE September 10, 1764. Letter of Mr. DESPL - Lot 130
ST PIERRE MARTINIQUE September 10, 1764. Letter of Mr. DESPLAS, addressed to Mr. DECHEF DE BIEN Écuyer, Lord of BIZANNET in NARBONNE. He was waiting for the return of a Bill of Exchange drawn on his Brother in favor of Mr BELMOND. He is touched by the death of his brother. "I learn with pleasure your establishment with my niece.... I live that with the help and the assistance of my friends, without whom I would be quite to pity... I had earned something by hard and painful work and my infirmities prevented me from continuing. However, I had to live, and I lost several negroes that I had, so that I find myself today in a very sad situation. I am sorry to beg you for the three thousand francs that I am asking you for... Being as I said crippled and unable to make the trip to France, which is very sensitive to me since my greatest pleasure would be to see my family again before I die. I beg you, kiss your dear wife and children, my sisters and all my other nephews and nieces a thousand times for me..." 2 pages in-4°.
