5800. NECKER (Jacques), Praise of.—

The grandson of M. Necker cannot fail of a hearty welcome in a country which so much
respected him. To myself, who loved the virtues
and honored the talents of the grandfather,
the attentions I received in his natal house, and
particular esteem for yourself, are additional
titles to whatever service I can render him.—
To Madame de Stael. Washington ed. v, 133.
(W. 1807)
