One of Napoleon's favorite marshals (1753-1815) who served as his chief of staff from the start of his first Italian campaign in 1796 until his first abdication in 1814. LS in French, one page, 7.75 x 12, December 31, 1806. Letter to Marshal Jean Lannes, advising him that he had sent an order to Brigadier General Girard to take command of a brigade in a division of the 1st Army Corps. He has given him orders to report to Marshal Lannes, whom he asks to recognize him for the command for which he has been destined. In fine condition. An appealing association piece between two Napoleonic Marshals.
