Addresses to him the memorial which the Count de Lac proposes to present to the tribunal of the Marshals of France, of which Colozan is the judge advocate; feels a deep interest in him as he is a relative of Madame de Vaudreueil, begs that the reasons which call him to America, his upright character, and the change in his fortune which he must lose if he does not gain the pardon, be explained to the tribunal.
