Monsieur le Président,

J’ai l’honneur d’envoyer à Votre Excellence la Table dont j’ai eu celui de lui parler hier, et que je croyais bien avoir offert aux bontés que vous m’avez témoignées dès mon premier Voyage. Votre Excellence rend justice à mon profond respect.

Has the honor to send to JM the table, which Du Pont de Nemours had the honor to speak to JM about the previous day, and which he thought he had given, for the many kind attentions JM has shown him since his first Trip.
