From Robert R. Livingston (unpublished)
Philadelphia, 25th. May 1783
Sir

Not knowing when it may be convenient for Mr. Bingham to deliver this I confine myself merely to introduce him to your acquaintance. I am persuaded I need not, as his character is known to you to be speak your civilities for him.

It may however be prudent if, (as he proposes) Mrs. Bingham should accompany him to caution you against such attentions as may deprive us too long of the pleasure of seeing her here again. I am sir With the greatest Esteem and regard Your most obedient humble servant

R R Livingston
