Description
Autograph letter signed, one page - on folded notepaper, 4,25 x 5 inch, in French, to an unnamed gentleman and friend - Maupassant begs off a planned trip because of a headache and fatigue, written and signed in black ink "Maupassant", attractively mounted with a portrait photograph of Guy de Maupassant and framed under glass for display (altogether 14,5 x 12,5 inch), with a mild horizontal fold, and signs of wear to the wooden frame - in fine to very fine condition.

I woke up at one o'clock, and I got home at five and took a break. I feel too migraine to go on an excursion tomorrow. So receive the expression of all my regrets and offer my sincere apologies to these ladies.
Sincerely yours - Maupassant"
