From John Adams (unpublished)
26 April, 1785.

Mr. Adams returns his respectful Compliments to Dr. Franklin. Mr. Jefferson will be so good, this evening, as to enquire, at the Post Office, for any Letters addressed to the American Ministers, or any of them. Mr. A. had heard within a few minutes, of the arrival of the March packet, but has as yet no letter. He has received a letter returned from the Hague, containing the Ratification of the Loan. But no News, except that Congress had resolved to send a Minister to London.

Addressed: A Son Excellence, Monsieur Franklin, / Ministre Plenipotentiaire, &c., &c., à Passy.
