Scope and Contents

Brassac arrived in Paris yesterday for just a few days. He came to bless the marriage of his student, son of their friend Narcisse Landry with Caroline Né . Brassac was at Rhodes about two weeks ago. He saw the heirs of Father Auguste Jeanjean who were very surprised that Blanc had not received the letters in which they acknowledged receipt of the various amounts Blanc had sent them on three different occasions. Brassac saw the father of their friend, an old man of 89 and deaf. He has only two children, a boy who married a year ago, and to whom he gave as a marriage settlement, one fourth of all his possessions present and future, to the advantage of his sister. Brassac saw the son and the daughter, Mrs.? Boguil ; they gave Brassac the receipt here enclosed no enclosure. Brassac asked for a copy of the marriage settlement but has not yet received it. If Blanc has other sums to send them, Brassac will attend to it. The Landry family plans to leave for the south of France in a few days with Brassac but will not be going to Italy as planned. P.S. Brassac received Blanc's letter and the new constitution. If Blanc comes next year he will find Brassac at Marvejol where he will be happy to receive him and accompany him if he wishes. :: V-5-d A.L.S. French 3pp. 4to.
