Summary
Referring to a previous letter sent by Ludovico Sforza on November 24th, particularly amable; saying that he will discharge part of his obligation by donating Ludovico a military vest, which Stefano Federici, called "Il Todeschino" will bring to him; confirming that he is always ready to pay him service and that "Il Todeschino" will inform him of the rest that is not contained in the letter.
