I.B. to F.P. 2.S.P. 4 3/4 P.M.
Your note requires an answer before 4. At
1/2 after 4 it was delivered here.
This Gentleman has friends in Paris, to whom
he & every thing about him are so perfectly known:
to me everything is perfectly unknown.
Either there is time for his hearing from them
or there is not. If there, he can have no need
of assistance from a stranger: if there is not, it
is his misfortune, and I see no reason for making
it mine.
If at the time of his applying to a stranger,
he had applied to those friends, in the first
instance, he might have received an answer
from them by this time: for aught I know, considerably
before this time: at any rate within
a day or two after the time.
I have had some experience in business
of this kind, as you know. About this business
