To: Monsieur Abbé Saunière at Rennes-le-Château
As you said to me the last time I worked for you, you told me that if I ever wanted some money, then I should ask you for it. So please forgive me if I take the liberty of today sending you my bill, since I thought I would be able to go there myself, but seeing that I will have to be away for several days I have decided to write to you, so here is my bill:
Balance outstanding on accounts dated from 1901 to 1907, the sum of |
56F.00 |
For arranging the doorstep of the gate facing the Villa, one day's work |
5F.00 |
6 April 1907, Elie and Paul 1/2 day, each = 1 day's work |
5F.00 |
October 1907, Elie and Paulis, 8 days at 3F.50 each |
28F.00 |
Supplying13 sacks of lime, at 1F.60 each |
24F.00 |
2 sacks of cement at 3F.10 each |
6F.20 |
For the time being everything is going fine and I hope it is the same for you and all the staff at the presbytery.
Hoping that you view my request favourably,
I remain,
Yours sincerely,
Elie Bot
