Lot 8. Fl, Henri Christophe to Toussaint, 2 April 1802, Camp Milot, no postal markings
and perhaps by private courier. Manuscript on front (in French) “very urgent”. All writing somewhat faint but
legible, contents a page and a half in neat hand, mention of a brush with French troops, and reaffirmation of
loyalty to Toussaint. Signed with the ornate signature of Christophe. Horizontal and vertical file folds detract
somewhat, but sound and clean. Scarce.
