L.A.S. "Renoir", Essoyes 10 September 1909, to Paule GOBILLARD at the château du Mesnil; 1 page and a half in8, envelope. To the niece of Berthe Morisot. He is worried about the health of Paule's sister, Jeannie, who is suffering: "I have good hope that Jeannie will end up getting out of this bad situation - with time when one is young one always wins despite the doctors". He is thinking of going back to Paris next weekend, but "it will depend on something very difficult that I started a little late"... He wishes her "Good success at the Salon d'Automne", and adds a few words to the patient: "My dear Jeannie, a little more courage and everything will be fine. We all have hope"...
