César-François Cassini de Thury to Benjamin Franklin, January 2, 1784
César-François Cassini de Thury requests Benjamin Franklin to consider awarding the Order of Cincinnatus to his brother-in-law, the Vicomte de Mory, in recognition of his military service during the American Revolution. He emphasizes de Mory's participation in multiple campaigns, sieges, and battles, arguing that this honor would bring great pride to their family and strengthen ties between France and the United States.
