Manuscript letter in a black border tipped in after the front free endpaper: "February 2, 1913 / Sir / Perhaps can you remember the visit, that the Countess de Lauriston paid you at Lauriston Castle in the Spring of 1910. She was with her married daughter and her son in law, my own son. I am happy to remember you this fact, as it will be for me an introduction and explain the liberty I take of sending you a short speech about Law in exile[?], I made at the Société de l'Histoire de France. I have been told, Sir, you take an interest in the history of this family, to which my son is connected, and that you know many things on that account. Let me hope you will be so kind as to point me what could be added or corrected in these few pages. When you next come to Paris, I expect, Sir, you may give me the pleasure of your visit. Believe me, Sir, sincerely yours Cte Boulay de la Meurthe.". Note in pencil below this "Gift to Wm R. Reid by M. le Comte Boulay de la Meurthe May 1913".
