Jean-Charles de SAINT-NECTAIRE Marquis de SENNETERRE(1685-1771,Maréchal de France en 1757) / Letter signed by himself, 2 p in-folio,Bordeaux, August 221767: He was consulted on the subject of "the discipline, subordination and service of the Maréchaussées", consulted with the Marechal de Richelieu and together they drafted the fruit of their reflection, "Indeed, can the Tribunal ever consent to giving the smallest portion of authority to people of dress over a troop of war assigned and subject only to the Constable and the Marshals of France for over 800 years? Wouldn't this be opening the door to all the abuses that had been successively introduced into the disciple, subordination and service of the troops, and which we were finally obliged to put a stop to by the provisions of the ordinance of April 19, 1760?"
