SIR,
Monsieur de la Jaille having represented to me, that there is no foundation left for the Works of the Ci∣tadel of Monpellier, and that there are some begun, that will never be able to stand, if they be not finished before Win∣ter; I write you this Letter to acquaint you, that in my opinion, the King would not take it amiss, if you should con∣vert, towards the finishing of these Works, the 12000 Livres
were sent you last, as well to levy 10 Troops of Horse, as for Ammunition Bread for the Souldiers that were then un∣der your Command, in case you should have been oblig'd for the Defence of the Province, to have assembled and caus'd 'em to march; reserving the rest of the said Fund to be em∣ploy'd in the Spring in new Levies, there having been no oc∣casion for any such hitherto.
I desire you to send me word what Horse you shall be likely to have the next year: Also to Answer my Letter co∣piously, which I sent you concerning Rousillon, and to be∣lieve that I am, &c.
