From . [Circa 1779.] 



P. S. [Letter lost.] If honored by Dr. Franklin's notice he will 

 pay his personal respects to him. He has a son, aged 20, in the mercan- 

 tile line in England who will assist him. Letters addressed to Mr. Free- 

 man, under cover of G. M. Coote, Esq., M.P., Dublin, will be sent to 

 him by that gentleman into the country, and be franked to him from Eng- 

 land, notwithstanding that Irish members cannot at present frank them 

 there or out of their own kingdom — a privilege which is yet to be re- 

 ceived by this once oppressed but now rising country, for which she may 

 thank America and her volunteer corps. L. i p. XLIV, iii.
