Although this trial is basically about the fees due to Grouber de Groubentall for his legal work on behalf of the marquis de Soyecourt, the work also deals elaborately with the ironworks in Lorraine, Moieuvre, Naix and Montiers, their productivity and condition. The judge who had to decide if Grouber was entitled to fees, and if so, how much he was to be paid, is called Jean-Baptiste de Gaulle and his report covers the pages 17-21 of the second text. First and last page with a small stain in the outer upper blank margin, a broad margined copy.
