O'Callaghan, E.B., ed. The Documentary History of the State of New York, Vol. IV. Albany: Weed, Parsons and Co., 1851. Passage 597 of 2174 257 words

occasion to learn, when he is constantly with me, and I ean devote myself so much more to his Service, than when in the School where a large Number are to be taken care of in conjunetion with Him--and perhaps this woud be a Spur to Him, as well as an additional Motive with Me, to take particular Pains in accomplishing Him for such a Service, and so the general Design of His Education be rather forwarded than retarded.

Shoud Your Honour acquiesce in, and approve of the Propo- . sal, I shoud immediately take upon me the whole Expence of his Education ; and go long as he serves in the Character of an Interpreter, would allow him a genteel Reward.

The present Excursion is designed only for a few months, after which He can return again to this School, so that I imagine if its of no Advantage, it can be but of little disadvantage to Him. but if there shoud be farther occasion for Him and it shoud %e agreable to You" to have Him continued in such a Service, T trust that I shall do Honourably by Him.

If Your Honour woud be pleased to acquaint me with Your Sentiments relative hereto, it woud be received as a Favour, And acknowledged with Gratitude by Him, who, relying on Your Candour to excuse the Prolixity, and pardon the Inaccuracies of this Letter, begs Leave in the most Respectful Manner to Subscribe Himself

Your Honours most Obedient Humble Servant Cuartes Jerrry Smirn. Sir William Johnson
