Dear Sir,

Since mine of the 12th, I have had an Interview with Mr Grand; and on my acquainting him with your Situation, and proposing to him to furnish you with such a Sum as you might have occasion for, he most readily agreed to it, saying you had only to draw upon him, and your Bills would be honoured. I seize with Pleasure the first Opportunity to inform you of this, being with sincere Esteem & Affection, Dear Sir, Your most obedient & most humble Servant

B. Franklin

I regret with you that our Employers should have forgotten or neglected to contrive Means of decent Return for their Ministers.

His Excelly H. Laurens, Esqr.
