Col. Wadsworth told me Yesterday that his Son was to be married to a Daughter
of Mr. Trumbull, the late Speaker. The Intimacy long subsisting between the two
families, must render this Match particularly pleasing to both. Say nothing of this for the
present. The conduct of the new french minister here seems to be generally approved I
have heard several Gentlemen speak handsomely of him. The Report of [illegible]
Marriage is in Circulation here How his [illegible] may operate on the Lady and her
connect ions excites Curiosity But these matters are unimportant to you or to me,
further than as they give [illegible] to useful observation.
My Love to the Children
Adieu my Dear Sally
Yours very sincerely and affectionately
