Attestation established at the French consulate in Alexandria, in favor of a young officer of the merchant brig l'Heureux Clairon commanded by Captain Louis Marie Salvy, from la Seyne-sur-Mer. The document is signed by Joseph Reboul, proconsul in Alexandria; Santi Lhomaca, chancellor; Jacques Roustan, second captain of the brig and Pierre Tropez Salvy, lieutenant of the brig and brother of the captain, the latter "not being able to sign because of an ophthalmia". [Born around 1738, Jean-Baptiste Santi Lhomaca occupied, from 1772 onwards, several posts of drogman (interpreter) in the consulates of Candia, Salonika, Constantinople and Tripoli in Syria. In 1791, he was appointed first drogman and chancellor in Alexandria, and in 1795, first drogman of the Consulate General of Syria and Palestine. During the Egyptian campaign, he served as interpreter under Bonaparte and Kléber, before being attached to General Menou].
