Ahoy!..

HELP!

I've been given the task to transcribe 3 letters written by "Baron" de Kalb. Two letters are in english and shall obviously have no trouble transcribing them. However, one letter is completely in french! Despite I can slightly get the jist of it, I cannot translate it and need some help translating this one french letter written by the "Baron".

Anyone who is well versed in french, please contact me. Help, please? Sorry, mates, not a paid commission either, it's all volunteer for the sake of history. :)

(damn I need to learn french!)

Shall try. :::runs to send off:::

Apologies if I am ever so giddy and excited. The one man I fancy more than Barbossa... and that's de Kalb!
