To Thomas Wight, Jr. (unpublished)
Philada. Nov. 25. 1786.
Sir

I received your Letter dated the 3d of September last, enquiring after John Tyler. He is living and in good Health, and was here with me a few Days since, but is I believe gone back in to the Country where he resides; his Coming to Town being to apply to Government for some Arrears due to him as Armourer to the Troops during the late War. I am glad to hear that Mr. and Mrs. Salt are still in the Land of the Living. My Respects and best Wishes attend them. I shall acquaint Mr. Tyler with what you have mentioned to me of something being left him, and am, Sir, Your humble Servant

B Franklin
