Benjamin Franklin to Ezra Stiles, May 23, 1757

New York, May 23. 1757

Dear Sir,

I have been waiting here near Six Weeks for the sailing of the Pacquet, and know not yet when that will be. 7 From London I will send you the Account you desire of the Verification of the Meridian of France; 8 and one of the best Thermometers I can procure. If in any thing else I can do you pleasure, signify it by a Line directed to me at the Pensilvania Coffee House in Birchin Lane. I shall always be glad to hear of your Welfare, being, with sincere Esteem and Regard, Dear Sir, Affectionately yours

B Franklin
