 In parts:

"D´autant mieux venu votre jeune ami (-d´abord parce qu´avec vous tres aimée Madame) que nous lui croyons avoir déniché des notes qui me paraissent devoir l´intéresser, car moi qui ne Chateaubrille [illegible], j´y ai été mordu; c´est le journal, jour par jour, d´une petite amie, quoiqu´enfant intime de Chateaubriand. [...] Mais vendredi c´est bien long! Vous ne nous ferez pas une petite avance? [...]"

Translated:

"Your young friend has come all the better (-first because with you, dearly beloved Madame) as we believe we have unearthed notes for him which seem to me to be of interest to him, because I, who do not Chateaubrille [illegible], have been bitten there; it is the diary, day by day, of a girlfriend, although an intimate child of Chateaubriand*. [...] But Friday is very long! Won't you give us a little advance? [...]"

* François-René de Chateaubriand (1768-1848) French Writer, Politician and Historian. He is considered the founder of Romanticism in French literature.
