Brief Summary:
Autograph letter signed from Voltaire to Charles Jean-Baptiste Fleuriau, comte de Morville, dating to 16 June 1727.
Detailed Summary:
Voltaire begins by saying that he has so far confined himself to a tacit admiration of Charles Jean-Baptiste Fleuriau, comte de Morville’s management of the public affairs of Europe, but that he can no longer withhold his sincere compliments on the wisdom of de Morville’s conduct. Voltaire then invites the comte to dine with Dean Swift and Charles-Jean-François Hénault.
