Scope and Contents
Migne's letter of August 1 informed Bellier that he could procure only 7 of the works in Bellier's order of June 21. He also gave the description and prices which he lists here. Since then he has found only 2 others which he lists. He is sending these works with the bill which amounts to 93.60. He adds all his publications which appeared up to now. He also adds the prospectuses of different publishers, as Bellier wished. No enclosures. Migne has not been able to procure the works on navy, even at the map store? of the department. He lists the books he must still search for. Before buying these three books, Migne wants to know what price Bellier would put on them. P.S. Besides the 93.60 Migne has? sent for 315, 20 volumes of patrology, 7 encyclopedias and 7 books on oratory, making a total of 403.60. To give an idea of the price of works on anatomy, Migne quotes the prices of Cloquet's works. :: VI-1-h A.L.S. French 4pp. 12mo.
