Passy, Sept. 15. 1784

Dear Sir,

I have just seen in the English Newspapers that you and your Family are safe arrived in New York, 2 which gives me great Pleasure. I send you herewith some of our latest News Papers. Mr Hartley is at length recall’d, having remain’d here Six Months without doing or proposing any thing towards the Commercial Treaty. 3 Messrs. Adams & Jefferson are here, and we go on together very well. Permit me to say my Love to Mrs Jay and my young Friend. 4 I am ever Yours most affectionately

B Franklin

I shall write you fully per next Packet

Honble. John Jay Esqr
