A son Excellency Dr. Benj. Franklin ministre plenipotentiaire des Etats unis de l’Amerique a Passy pres de Paris. I congratulate him on the succes of the warr and the freedom of America. I inquire whether he knows if my lettre to Mr. Wharton has reached Philadelphia, and wether he knows any thing about the circonstances of Mr. Wharton. I quote some contradictions which I find in the letters of Mr. Coffyn with that of Dr. Bankroft. That the unaccountable behavior of Mr. Wharton towards me keeps me also in the dark about a lettre to Mr. Willians at Boston, which I entrusted in his hands. I wrot to Mr. Williams that he should send me a certificate of the loan office of about 2000 Pound Sterl. which was put in it on my account, and which was the produce of a mercantil advanture which Mr. Williams directed for me. That I trusth the new American gouvernment will not make me loose the money which I entrusted it with before any depreciation of the American currency happened. I hope he would consider all this and answer me about it.
