Letter to Dr. Double who developed auscultation techniques before Laennen. In part (translated): “A thousand thanks for your letter that almost causes me joy in my despair…Be assured, I will stay here! Paris won't see me until my presence doesn't create an unfavorable influence. I will finish the mission entrusted to me, without considering a reorganization…I will be spending six years far from my family…I receive letters from them everyweek…and I suffer so in reading them that sometimes the pain they cause me makes me cry out…As far as I'm concerned the Expedition de Guerre [War Expedition] is totally unsuccessful.” Reverse of second integral page bears an address panel in another hand and retains a majority of its red wax seal In very good condition, with intersecting folds, one through a single letter of signature, some scattered toning and spotting, paper loss to second page from seal, and light show-through from writing on reverse.
