Sire.
Manuscript - date fontainbleu les 6 November 1810.
signed as approved by Napoleon ("NB")
Single leaf requesting convalescence leave. Brigadier General Chaudron in order to recover needs leave to go to the waters and to follow very long treatments. The attached certificate [not included] from the surgeon of the 96 regiment and the main doctor of the 1st corps states that for 2 years this general officer has been suffering from several infirmities and that he has just suffered a serious illness from which he can only recover in France, the climate of Spain being contrary to it.
The Duke of Bellune, who transmits this request to me, fears that Mr. Chaudron Rousseau will succumb if his stay in Andalusia is prolonged any further.
He praises the distinguished manner in which this general officer has served and recommends him to the goodness of your majesty, asking that you grant him convalescence leave of eight months, the time having been deemed necessary for his recovery by health officers the prince of Wagram and Neuchatel.
Signed Major General Alexandre.
