Description
Arbois, (Jura), 9th September 1889
My Dear Architect,
I am keen to thank you for your very friendly letter. If you wanted to [grow] or plant a few bushes in the [reserved] squares, I would approve everything you have decided. I have great confidence in your taste.
Certainly, I will take over the matter of the extension of the laboratory in the Rue d’Ulm and I thank you for your good will on this matter.
As long as old age does not deprive me of the necessary strength, I want to try everything to put French science, in the [?] of my studies, at the forefront.
With my thanks, please receive the new assurance of my very [affectionate] sentiments
L. Pasteur
