Autograph letter signed : Paris, to [the Countess Aurora Konigs March, Mother of Maurice de Saxe], 1721 Mar. 22.

This long and spirited letter, written in 1721, the year Lecouvreur became the mistress of Maurice de Saxe, is apparently written to his mother, the Countess Aurora Konigs March, begging for her support. The Marechal de Saxe had just returned to France from a campaign against the Turks, obtained his commission, and been divorced from his wife. Signed "Lecouvreur."
