This manuscript appears to consist only of a title page, which includes a title provided by Wagnière for a preceding collection of Voltaire’s plays: Samson, Eriphile, Les Frères ennemis, and Adélaïde du Guesclin. The manuscript is preceded by what is presumably another title page that reads ‘Paperasses de théâtre envoyées par Lacombe, 1775, à examiner’.

Additionally, Voltaire acknowledges a receipt of this manuscript from Lacombe on 29 May 1775 [D19494], stating that it seemed to him to have been ‘copié d’après un original qui était depuis près de quarante ans entre les mains de Mr de Pondevèlle’.
