"The Minister of Army Administration, Count Daru, having granted me at the time, on behalf of the Governor, several portable cases of surgical instruments for surgeons whom I believe to be worthy of this award, I have the honour of informing you, Sir, that I have included you on the list of those who appear to me to have deserved it. Please receive one of these cases as a token of my appreciation for the services you rendered to our wounded during the last campaign. I have reason to believe that this mark of the governor's benevolence will be a new source of emulation for you...".
