1 [Xbre 1804] [December 1, 1804]. Manuscript copy of a letter to M. Marliani at Rue Neuve-du-Luxembourg, Paris. Has not heard from him since he departed St. Domingue. Has been writing to Marliani and Gosselin. Received a letter from his wife, telling him of Marliani's arrival in France. Is always worried about Marliani's ship travels because of the break with England. M. Robiou Savignais is traveling to France and will inform Marliani of changes to the coffee plantation affairs; he is discussing the sale of his share in the house, which will give Rousselin a new partner. Rousselin is angry about it, particularly with regard to issues of friendship, esteem, and trust. Marliani & Co. funds are safe and guaranteed by Rousselin. Had thought putting money into Robiou's establishment was the right thing to do because the war was keeping him from leaving the island. Interest and debt information pertinent to M. Gosselin.
