Summary
Saying to his recipient that his housekeeper (maestro di casa) assures him to have received from Coco who he heard is presently with his correspondent, repeated requests to be employed in his service by Coco of his own household, and since there happens to be just now an opening, a formal proposal has to be made to him; saying that since Coco's father has been serving his family for a long time, he has agreed to please him without even knowing where he (the younger Coco) can be found.
