The beginning of the letter is missing. Voltaire has added two lines at the bottom of the letter which state that the letter was from Thieriot and is in his hand.
The recueil contains a contemporary copy of a letter from Voltaire to Turgot, written from Ferney and dated 18 May [1776]. In the letter, Voltaire discusses Turgot’s governance and notes that Mr de Trudaine claims that in Geneva, Switzerland, Franchecomté, and all along the Lion Road people are convinced that they have lost their father.
