May I beg the favour of you to inform Dr Franklin & the other Gentlemen who signed the Certificate from the Philosophical Society at Philada., intended for my late worthy Father, that I have had the misfortune to loose him in March last.—A truer Philosopher, or a more virtuous Citizen probably never existed.
I have been pursuing my Experiments of late on the Calcarious Cements &c. with great Success.
Believe me Ever, Dear Sir, Most sincerely Yrs.—
