John Schaffer to William Temple Franklin (unpublished)
Sir

Madam Defrere who Loges at the Lhotel des Mi Lords ruë du Mail informed me that she expects you will wait upon her this day. As it is no great distance frome where I Live should be Very happe if I Could flatter meself of having the Honour of seeing you as I live in the Temple am Deprived of the Honour of waiting upon you.

Your Grandfather was Kind Enough to Lend me Money when in Great Distress for wich I have Obligation to him. If you recolect the last time I saw you I gave you a bill upon Mr Denamy Marchand Rue St. oines (?). I should be happe to Know wether you have Received the amount of it. If not I have same bills that are good but as I am in the Temple and have no aquaintance that I can trust therefore canot negosiate them. My intentions are to Leave urope as soon as Posible. I beg that you will Do me the honour to Call to see me wich certainly will Confer the Greatest Obligations upon an unfortunate Countryman and frend and Very humble Servant

J. Schaffer
