Summary
Informing him that the letter he wrote [about Suzanne Moreau] isn't suitable. Suzanne was never salaried. She's also not on public insurance. The lawyer Nourry became suspicious of this the previous May when he came to visit Laurencin and saw Suzanne for the first time. He wanted to take care of her affairs. She proposes the following rewording: For the past 28 years, Marie Laurencin has provided for Suzanne Moreau, who shares her life and for whom she shows maternal affection. She says he should write something like that, making it sound as affectionate as possible, and he should write it by hand. He should say that he's always seen her with her for the past 28 years.
