No. 24 To the Empress, at Malmaison
Nymphenburg, near Munich, October 21, 1809.
I arrived here yesterday in the best of health, but shall not start till to-morrow. I shall spend a day at Stuttgard. You will be advised twenty-four hours in advance of my arrival at Fontainebleau.
I look forward with pleasure to seeing you again, and I await that moment impatiently.
I send you a kiss.—Yours ever,
Napoleon.
