I added references to more letters from Le Tellier's correspondence in "Ciphers Early in the Reign of Louis XIV". They are found in BnF fr.6884, fr.6889, and fr.6891.
I have already reported that the correspondence between Le Tellier and Colbert appears to have switched to two-part code (Le Tellier-Colbert Cipher 2 (DE=13/59~)) between November and December 1650 (though the arrangement is not completely random), and Mazarin also used it in 1650. This time, it was found DE=13/59~ was used by Mazarin as late as December 1652, while Le Tellier-Colber correspondence used a different two-part code (Le Tellier-Colbert Cipher 3 (DE=18^)) in January 1652.
