Summary
Discussing, at length, his feeling about Tiriot [Thiriot]'s betrayal; telling him how quickly the latter forgot the words of Abbé Desfontaines towards him in the Dictionaire Neologique [1731]; mentioning a lampoon against Voltaire [La Voltairomanie] and saying that Tiriot's silence in this regard is shameful given their long friendship.
