Benjamin Franklin to Charles Thomson, January 27, 1769

London, Jan. 27. 1769.

Gentlemen,

Enclos’d is Bill of Lading and Invoice of the Books you order’d, which I wish safe to hand, and am, Gentlemen Yours and the Company’s most obedient Servant

B Franklin

P.S. On looking over your Letter I see that I am desir’d to add other Books if the List does not amount to your Money. Now that I have receiv’d the Invoice and find it amounts to so little, 6 I shall look out for some valuable Books to send you per Storey, or to bring with me for you.
