Your congratulatory letter, on the adoption of the Constitution
by the Convention of New York, has been placed in my hands:

it would be incompatible with the feelings of the good Citizens
of America to be insensible to the friendly sentiments expressed
by patriotic foreigners for their public felicity. –
For myself, it might be superfluous to add more than that
I remain, with due impressions for your partiality in my favour,
Sir,
