ref. 013960Jean-Charles d'Augeard (1725-ap.1777), président à mortier au Parlement de Bordeaux, conseiller du roi. L.A.S., Poitiers, 14 mars 1777, 1p in-4. Adresse et cachet aux armes (illisibles) au dos. A Pierre-Emmanuel de Casaux (1716-1778), président à mortier au Parlement de Bordeaux : « Je saisirai toujours avec empressement, Monsieur, les occasions d'être utile à Monsieur votre frère, vous me rendez justice en ne doutant pas de l'envie que j'ai de rendre service à un camarade et à un ami ; je me flatte qu'il m'accorde ce titre. Pontac qui doit venir me joindre ici à la fin du mois pourrait se charger de conduire les mulets de Monsieur votre frère jusqu'à Poitiers. Je lui en écris. Je compte partir d'ici le vingt six ou le vint sept de ce mois. Procurez-moi des occasions de vous être bon à quelque chose et j'espère que vous reconnaitrez que mon attachement pour vous n'est pas moins sincère que celui que j'ai voué à Monsieur votre frère. Je suis, Monsieur, votre très humble et très obéissant serviteur. Daugeard. Présentez, je vous prie, mes respects à Monsieur votre père et à Madame votre mère ». d'Augeard avait épousé Luce-Eléonore de Chardeboeuf de Pradel, originaire de Poitiers, en 1763. Il est parfois donné (à tort !) mort en 1755. Pontac est un membre de la fameuse famille bordelaise dont l'histoire est autant liée aux vins de Bordeaux qu'à son parlement. Elle donne des présidents à mortier et des premiers présidents. [215]
