The Person who will have the honour of presenting this Line to you, is the Reverend Mr. William Nixon, a Clergyman of the Episcopal Church, who goes to Georgia with Views of Settling there in his Profession. If there be, as I have heard, an Intention in the Government there, to erect an Academy or College for the Education of Youth in good Literature, I think they can hardly find a more suitable Person than the Gentleman to superintend such an Institution it being a Part of Science that he has thouroughly studied, in which he has had great Experience and made very considerable Improvements. I mention this of my self without knowing whether he would accept of such a Charge; but if you can assist him in procuring a comfortable Establishment in that Country, you will in my Opinion not only serve a worthy and good Man, but in a Citizen so capable of being useful you will make a valuable Acquisition for the Publick.

I was glad to hear of your safe Arrival in Georgia, we having had some bad Weather here soon after your Departure. Wishing you every kind of Prosperity, I have the honour to be, with great and sincere Esteem, Dear Sir, Your most obedient and most humble Servant
