No. 6 To the Empress, at Paris
December 7, 1808.
Your letter of the 28th to hand. I am glad to see that you are well. You will have seen that young Tascher has distinguished himself, which has pleased me. My health is good.
Here we are enjoying Parisian weather of the last fortnight in May. We are hot, and have no fires; but the nights are rather cool.
Madrid is quiet. All my affairs prosper.
Adieu, dear.—Yours ever,
Napoleon.
Kind regards to Hortense and to M. Napoleon.
