I ought in duty to have wrote before this time to express the Satisfaction I Receivd at Paris from the honour of your Acquaintance,2 & also to acknowledge your very many Civilitys, and If I have been guilty of an Omission in this particular, The cause arose from an apprehension of being troublesome. No Person can have a greater respect & more sincere regard for Dr: Franklyn than myself. Your Name is Immortal, yes Sir What Man who prizes Humanity will not have pride honor & Pleasure in giving Praise to so venerable a Character. I hope the Battle is finally fought & won, & that the Civil Crown(?) so honorably obtained will long be enjoyed in Peace & happyness.

I had the pleasure of seeing Yesterday your Grandson & his Companion Jeanet.3 They were both in perfect Health, and I consider as two Young Plants which will produce good fruit when transplanted into their native Soil. They appear of Character so different yet each good in their Kind. As I propose to pass the Next succeeding months in Geneva I hope to see them often, if you have any Instructions to give concerning them I shall have much pleasure in receiving Them. I take the Liberty to inclose your Excellence a Letter which is destined for Boston. The Young Man to whom it is addressed is said to be a great Genius & full of Talents. His Parents are very worthy People & greatly respected.4 They sollicit me to intreat your Excellence to say a word in his favour to some friend at Boston, & also his itinerant Companion by name Serre. These two young Men formed a Project to establish themselves in America animated with the Ideea of the new World where they might have a better opportunity to distinguish Themselves than in the old.

Mrs Pigott desires to present her best Respects which concludes me with all possible regard Honorable Sir Your very devoted Servt.
