LETTER CCLXVII. To the Dutchess of Savoy.

MADAM,

THE King, making no distinction betwixt your High∣ness's and his own Servants, commanded me to send to your Highness two Briefs of Marechax de Camp in his Army, and two others of Pensions for the Count de Verrue, and the Marquess de Ville, that they may receive them by your hands. I also send you by his Majesty's Order, two blank Briefs for Pensions, which you may fill up with their Names whom you judge most worthy, and whom you know to be best affected to his Majesty, and your Highness. In this, as in all other things, you may see the esteem that the King has for your Person, and the desire I have according to his Intentions, to manifest to you what Zeal I have for what concerns the Advantage of your Highness, to whom I am, &c.
