A handwritten letter in ink on aged, lined paper, addressed from a writer in Montreal to two men named in the salutation, with the words "Gentlemen" visible below the address block. The text is in a cursive hand and fills most of the page, with a pencilled or inked annotation in the upper left corner and the stamp-like mark "000570-A" in the top right. The letter discusses the dismissal of militia officers and the removal of officers from their commissions, and the lower part is marked with the watermark-like credit "Archives de la Ville de Montréal".Described automatically by a vision model; may contain mistakes.
