| Description | Marguerite Serres, a woman of over 80, requests to be admitted to the Hospital. She was born in Bordeaux. She is paralysed and requires two people to lift her from her bed. The petition is undated and signed by Jean Comberose, Jean de Blagny, J T Muysson and Jean P Thermin, apothecary of the committee. Pinned to it are two papers. One is a certificate signed by J Jacquin, a doctor, confirming Marguerite's condition, dated 12 July 1768. The second paper states that Marguerite's father was Finez de Saliacque, from the parish of Monfort, in Guienne. |
