William Ellery Esqr. Delegate from the State of Rhode Island to Congress, is desired by his humble servt. John Franklin to make strict enquiry to find out whether Mr. Samuel BOONE Senr. is yet living as last fall he was taken at George's manner on Long Island by Major Talmadge a refugee prisoner and Conveyed to Lancaster in Pennsylvania I desire at all events that it may be known as my Wife is his daughter and she is very uneasy to know where her mislead Father is. If dead it is desired that it may be certified properly. [1781]
