Letter signed "napol\Apostille signed autograph at the bottom of dejean. Interesting letter about the supply of rifles a few days after the battle deylau. "A battle like the dausterlitz costs at least 12,000 rifles." "Monsieur dejean, I receive your report by which you conclude that the army must have more guns than men. No doubt, if she had not consumed it, a battle like the dausterlitz costs at least 12,000 rifles, and great marches cost too. You can easily judge numbers that have been lost for two years, it is not an exaggeration to increase them to sixty thousand.

Without the Austrian and Saxon rifles, France should have supplied much more. I agree that you have made the 15th of the line leave for mayence. With that, I pray God that he has you in his holy guard.
