Turgot, who was then intendant of the generality of Limoges, where Caillard (1737-1807) had assisted him before entering the diplomatic service, seeks to find Caillard a position. He informed him of Mr Trudaine's irresolution and feared that "Mr de B. would be unable to return to the career he had begun". "I beg you to inform me of your progress, of your projects, of the steps I can take to make them succeed [...] have no doubt of the interest I will always take in your happiness". Caillard was secretary to the Comte de Boisgelin, French minister in Parma.
