November 11th, 1678.
I have received your letter of the 22d, the principal point of which is, the making the King acquainted with the reason, for which the CountMatthioli did not set off so soon as he had promised the Abbé d’Estrades. We must wait for his arrival to know what he has to propose to the King.
