Summary
Explaining that he has been preoccupied with the forced removal of his library and belongings from Chaillot and expects to be busy for two days more; asking for a few days rest from his work on Béatrix as he is worn out with moving and overwhelmed with proofs for Un grand homme de Province à Paris; noting that he has some corrections and additions to make to the chapter of "Claude Vignon" (from his Béatrix) and stipulating that it should not go out without the fresh copy.
