Opposed to a counter-revolution in France, and mentions attacks on himself. "The papers will inform you of the toiles in which France has Been Unexpectedly thrown by a Counter Revolutionary intrigue, and of the neccessity we are under to oppose it." Also "in the Gazette and guardiene you may find among many lies the effusions of disappointment and Rage," and Lafayette himself "has Been a principal bull of these feelings because he is considered as a principal obstacle to these designs, you will easily conceive." Also gives an introduction for an acquaintance who will be doing business in the United States. Mounted to backer board. The recipient has a nephew who works at the American Consulate in Lyon, a post held at that time by Cornelius Bradford.
