1. In a letter of 10 April (LbC, Adams Papers), JA returned seven bills of exchange that Jean de Neufville & Fils had sent to him in a letter of 28 March and inquired about in another of 3 April, both above. JA accepted six of the bills, but with regard to the seventh he requested that the Neufvilles write to Benjamin Franklin to determine if he already had accepted it. They did so on 11 April (Franklin, Papers
, 34:529–530).
