From Madame Brillon
Tuesday morning [March 17?, 1778]

My dear papa, Monsieur l’Abbé de St.-Non has entrusted me with his engraving to send to you; he claims that it will have additional worth, if it is offered by the hand of a friend. I am deeply grateful to him for this consideration, and for the opportunity it gives me to assure you of my most tender and sincere attachment.
