To Thomas Cushing
ALS: Public Record Office
London, April 28. 1774
Sir,

I have written several Letters to you lately by different Conveyances, and sent you the Bills pass’d and about to be pass’d relating to our Province. I now send the Report of the Committee of the Lords, which seems hard upon us, as every thing written by any Officer of Government is taken for undoubted Truth. I can now only add, that I am, as ever, with great Respect, to the House and yourself, Sir, Your most obedient and most humble Servant

B Franklin
