Napoleon Bonaparte document signed, dated 28 November 1810. Written in French and signed by Ferdinando Marescalchi, Italian Secretary of State, who addresses Napoleon as ''the Emperor of the French, King of Italy, Protector of the Confederation of the Rhine''. Here, Marescalchi petitions on behalf of ''the People of Guastalla'' for Napoleon to reopen the Church of Religious Servants in Guastalla, Italy, which had been closed during the French Revolution under an increased period of de-Christianization and religious suppression. Napoleon signs p.1 of document with an ''Accorde'' written in Napoleon's hand, or ''agreed'' translated into English, as he concurred with Maresalchi's request. Card-style document measures 8'' x 12.25'' and has text to front and verso of p. 1. Very minor toning, else near fine.
