Messrs. Franklin and Deane present their respectful Compliments to Mr. Lee, and acquaint him that they propose to send away the Dispatches on Monday; and that they are and were ready and desirous to consult with him upon any Circumstance relating to that Business whenever he may think proper. Their Note of Friday was a simple Proposition for his Consideration, and does not imply a fix’d Intention as he seems willing to understand it. Their Word was propose and not purpose. They meant merely to give him Notice that the Papers would be transcrib’d and every thing on their Part be then ready.
