I ought in duty to have wrote before this time to express the Satisfaction I received at Paris from the honour of your Acquaintance, and also to acknowledge your very many Civilitys, and If I have been guilty of an Omission in this particular, The cause arose from an apprehension of being troublesome. No Person can have a greater respect and more sincere regard for Dr. Franklyn than myself. Your Name is Immortal, yes Sir What Man who prizes Humanity will not have pride honor and pleasure in giving Praise to so venerable a Character. I hope the Battle is finally fought and won, and that the so honorably obtained will long be enjoyed in Peace and Happiness.
I had the pleasure of seeing yesterday your Grandson and his Companion Jeanet. They were both in perfect Health, and I consider as two young plants which will produce good fruit when transplanted into their native Soil. They appear of Characters different yet each good in their Kind. As I propose to pass the succeeding months in Geneva I hope to see them often, if you have any Instructions to give concerning them I shall have much pleasure in receiving Them. I take the Liberty to inclose your Excellence a Letter which is destined for Boston. The Young Man to whom it is addressed is said to be a great Genius and full of Talents. His Parents are very worthy people and greatly respected. They sollicit me to intreat your Excellence to say a word in his favour to some friend at Boston, and also his itinerant Companion by name Serre. These two young Men formed a project to establish themselves in America animated with the Idea of the new World where they might have a better opportunity to distinguish themselves than in the old.
Mrs Pigott desires to present her best Respects which concludes me with all possible regard Honorable Sir Your very devoted Servant
