LOUVOIS TO SAINT-MARS.
Versailles, July 9th, 1681.
I have received your letter of the 29th of last month. You may have the doors you have need of, for the security of your prisoners, made at Exiles, without taking the trouble of having them carried from Pignerol.
I have written to the Père Lachaise for the benefice, which you ask of the King for one of your children, to whom I trust His Majesty will grant it.
De Louvois.[317]
