From Chalut and Arnoux
Passy, Saturday October 2 [1779]

The abbés de Chalut and Arnoux present their compliments to Monsieur Franklin and request that he let them know any news about his health, in which they take the greatest interest.

If Monsieur Franklin has received the Courier de L’Europe, the two abbés hope he will allow them to read it, and they will be sure to return it to him.

Addressed: for Monsieur Franklin
