Translation
Number 47 Not wishing to lose a moment in
carrying out Your Honor’s orders I hope
to deserve you giving me some news
of Monsieur Colin Lacour’s mulatto
that I must send, if he is the Overseer
of the habitation and he has another in
charge or in service to it or else
the name of the Father, Mother, and
if he is the first or second because two
of the four which the said Lacour has are
absent and I am afraid that he will tell me
if I appear that he is absent
