Application has been made to me, by the State of Massachusets for part of the Blankets lately arrived at portsmouth from France.1 As I did not know, how you might have disposed of them, I thought my interfering in the Matter might occasion some confusion, and therefore desired them to apply to your Agents in Boston,2 to whom I beg you will give orders to deliver them such a proportion as you think them entitled to. I am Sir Yr most obt Servt.
