Letters to Benjamin Franklin ii 



From James Logan. [Circa 1754?] March 30. London. 



Quoting a paragraph from his brother's letter, concerning the 



strange attitude of their Governor in not taking certain measures 



to make peace with the Indians, in accordance with his instructions. 



A. L S. I p. XL, 180. 



From [Thomas-Frangois] Dalibard. 1754. March 31. Paris. 



Franklin's name justly reverenced in France by all, except a small 

 number of electricians, like I'Abbe Nollet, who are jealous of his dis- 

 coveries. A. L. S. 3 p. (In French.) I, 25. 



Printed in Works (Sparks, VI, 193). 



From Pet [er] Timothy. 1754. June 14. Charles Town. 

 Acknowledging favor of Apr. 28th by Capt. Robeson which caused 

 him great concern though its severity was probably merited ; explains 

 why he did not send the money. Sends $65 by Rudeman Robeson ; thinks 

 that will about balance his account. Can send no paper as yet. For 4 

 months has been the sole occupant of his printing-office, except a negro 

 boy; discharged his villainous apprentice, who might have been of vast 

 service to him had he not been addicted to drink, play and scandalous 

 company. A. L. S. 3 p. I, 26. 



From William Daniell. 1754. June 25. Kingston. 



Desirous of dealing with him for paper; asks for certain samples and 

 prices. A. L. S. i p. I, 27. 



From William Daniell. 1754. June 29. Kingston. 

 Since his last, has received Mr. Franklin's letter, telling him the 

 paper has not arrived ; will give more particular directions to the captain 

 that carries them. A. L. S. i p. I, 28. 



From John Franklin. 1754. September 2. Boston. 



Expected to hear complaints from Philadelphia of hot weather. Con- 

 cerning Blanchard's Remedy for the Stone; thinks it might be service- 

 able in his disorder; means he has taken to procure some. Messages 

 his wife sends. The enclosed is to be forwarded to Mr. Beacham's son, 

 who is sick. A, L. S. i p. I, 21. 



From William Daniell. 1754. November 16. Kingston. 

 Acknowledging the receipt of 10 reams of paper, and asking for 

 fifty more, as he is really much in want. A. L. S. i p. I, 30.
