My dear Child,

I receiv’d your Letters by Mr. Keene, and some others, which I shall answer fully by Capt. Faulkner, who sails in a few Days.

By him I send the Eider Down Cover lid, and Bag for the Feet, which cost 12 Guineas; also the Camlet a second time for Sister Peter, to supply what was lost in Capt. House: with some other little things that I shall mention hereafter. They are in a Box mark’d SF.

This serves to let you know we are well, and to cover a Pacquet for the Speaker which you will carefully deliver.

My Duty to Mother, Love to Sally and all Friends, I am concern’d you should be so perplex’d about a House, and hope you are settled before this time.

Your ever [loving husb]and

B Franklin

In the Box are sundry Parcels for Mrs. Gambier.
