Sir

I take the Liberty of sending you enclosed, several Letters for Col. Laurens, which I request the Favour of you to deliver to him. He will repay you the Postage. I have regularly paid M. de Chaumont the Expence of Postage that arose from the dispatches I sent to you to forward to America; and I beg you to accept my Thanks for the Trouble you are so good as to take in this Business. I have the honour to be, Sir, (in behalf of my Grandfather)

Your most Obedt. &ca.—
