Michel Guillaume (Hector) St. John (St. Jean) de Crèvecoeur to Benjamin Franklin, June 24, 1783

Paris Tuesday Night— [June 24 or July 1, 1783] 6

Sir

I forgot the other day To Inquire of you where I cou’d procure Two of Your Medals, 7 which I have Imprudentely promised in
Normandy—after Fruitless Inquirys, I find myself obliged to ask you that Question, being
Anxious To procure them Ere I Leave the Capital which will be on Saturday—

I am with unfeigned Respect Sir Your Very Humble Servt.

St. Jean DE Crèvecœur
