To the Comte de Brienne (unpublished)
Philada. April 23. 1788
Sir,

I received by the November Pacquet the Letter you did me the Honour to write to me the 13th of that Month, enclosing one from Mr. Thomas. I had before received a Duplicate of the same Letter from that Gentleman, and having enquired minutely into the Affair, wrote him the Answer of which I enclose a Copy. I hope this may prove Satisfactory. With great Respect, I have the Honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient and most humble Servant
