summary

This appeal by French businessmen to the King of France entreats His Majesty that “Jews not be allowed to establish themselves in the Kingdom; that those who have already entered, be forced to leave, with the exception of those already established in the city of Metz, and that even they not be allowed to reside elsewhere in the Kingdom outside of said city.” (p. 30)
