Sir,

There is a great Variety of Paper Money in America, of which some has been counterfeited. I have not here the Register from which the Bills were cut; but if they were shown to me, I might probably be able to tell whether they are genuine or not.—

I am glad to hear that a Reconciliation is propos’d between the Faculty and the Society. I wish it Success.

With great Esteem I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient & most humble Servant

B Franklin
