Dans ce cas vous serez assez bon pour lui dire aussi le peu de temps qui m'est laisse a cet egard' (Translation: 'Can you tell him that I would be very happy for the honour he would do me in this circumstance? In that case you will be good enough to tell him also the little time left to me in this regard'). With blank integral leaf. About EX
