Hello, An old woman came to the bar the other day ... she told me an incredible story, and you can probably help her. In 1630, an epidemic of plague raged in Lombardy. Richelieu secretly sent a Royal Navy vessel to repatriate a French garrison stationed in Mantua. But they never returned home. Richelieu landed the plague victims on an island, then made the rest of the crew pass for dead. In reality, for fear of contagion, he had confined the sailors, however healthy, on another island, and forced them to stay there to fight the pirates and the Spanish. The old woman received a letter from her son. He was part of the crew. He is alive. He has deserted, and indicates how to find him in these documents. After all these years ... help this mother find her son. Louise.
