'Cher Monsieur Glaser Ce matin j'ai reçu v. lettre du 5/2... J'ai payé à M. 100 Thalers pour les quels voudrez envoyer à mon frère la contrevaleur de francs 227. ...
Au sujet de la monnaie d'Abissinie, d'après votre lettre, j'avais compris qu'elle avait été vendue définitivement, et que seulement il fallait attendre la fin de l'année pour tomber le montant. ...
Sont commencées les pluies; esperons qu'elles tombent en abondance. Le ciel, même sans nuages, est sombre et je crois que la grêle ne tardera pas trop à tomber. ... Agréez, cher ami, mes cordiales salutations ... G. Caprotti'
