John Adams to Henry Grand, May 27, 1783
27. May 1783.— 1
M r. Adams’s Books & Papers being at the Hague, it is impossible for him to give M r. Grand a List of the Bills drawn on M r. Laurens and him, which have been accepted by him, before he shall return to the Hague. 2
M r. Adams gave to Mess s. Fizeau Grand & C o. at Amsterdam compleat Lists of all the Bills he accepted & transmitted to D r. Franklin also in the time of it Copies of those Lists.
What remains to be paid M r. Adams knows not. He never knew to what Amount Bills were drawn— He has accepted none since he left the Hague, and very few, scarcely any for many Months before.
M r. Adams returns his respectful Comp lts. to M r. Grand.
It will be sufficient for M r Grand to transmit to M r. Morris, Copies of the Accounts of the House of Fizeau Grand & C o. —
