GALLOIS Jean (1632-1704) abbé, érudit et savant, cofondateur du Journal des sçavans, garde de la Bibliothèque du Roy [AF 1672, 26e f]. L.A.S. " L'abbé Galloys ", to Denis DODART; 1 page in-8. Very rare (one of the two known letters from Raoul Bonnet). "Madame COLBERT has ordered me to have vessels made incessantly to cook meat and bones in the manner of Monsieur BOYLE. And as I cannot make the workmen understand how these vessels should be made, because we will not be going to Paris so soon, and it is difficult to make them understand this by talking to them, I beg you [] to take the trouble to have the vessels made by the workmen you judge most suitable for this, and to have them work on them incessantly. Provenance : collection Jacques-Charles BRUNET (December 19, 1868, n° 37).
