Summary
Asking him to relay thanks to Sir Hudson for the use of a horse, mentioning a lack of hay for the horses at Longwood; inquiring on behalf of the General [Napoleon] as to whether Hudson might be able to spare particular volumes possibly containing "the recollections of the Grand Army during the Invasion of Russia"; providing updates on Madame's condition, which seems to be improving.
