Hon R Yeates

Some time since, I enclosed to your honor, an instrument of writing to be sent to France. as it is written in French I suppose your honor might be puzle to make out the meaning of it - my friend Junot or some other French man would give you the explanation. It seems that in France they will not permit a marrege untill, the consent of Parents, is obtained - Mr Bechler, gives his consent, and that is the object of the paper I sent you and to be signed by you, as the young man is keen to get married


and enjoy its benefits. I hope my old friend R Yeates will sign said paper and send to Tremont, on return Mail

Respectfully yours

P Menard
