TO JAMES BOWDOIN, AT BOSTON
Philadelphia, 25 October, 1750. Sir:—
Enclosed with this I send you all my electrical papers, fairly transcribed, and I have, as you desired, examined the copy, and find it correct. I shall be glad to have your observations on them, and if in any part I have not made myself well understood, I will on notice endeavour to explain the obscure passages by letter. My compliments to Mr. Cooper and the other gentlemen who were with you here. I hope you all got safe home. I am, Sir,
Your most humble servant,B. Franklin.
