* To 'mon cher Céard'. 'Voulez-vous venir dîner ce soir avec nous.' Madame Daudet will cook. 'Il n'y a que Goncourt.' 'Votre très dévoué/ Alph. Daudet'. Three or four words that I couldn't read present a challenge to the expert.

The author and librarian Henry Céard (1851-1924) was a good friend of Daudet. Together with a.o. Huysmans, Maupassant, and Zola, a circle close with Daudet, he was a member of the 'Groupe de Médan'. In 1899 Céard wrote the preface for Daudet's posthumous Collected Works.
