No. 1 To Josephine, at Paris
Lausanne, May 15, 1800.
I have been at Lausanne since yesterday. I start to-morrow. My health is fairly good. The country round here is very beautiful. I see no reason why, in ten or twelve days, you should not join me here; you must travel incognito, and not say where you are going, because I want no one to know what I am about to do. You can say you are going to Plombières.
I will send you Moustache,16 who has just arrived.
My very kindest regards to Hortense. Eugène will not be here for eight days; he is en route.
Bonaparte.
