As His Excelly has not only induced ye Hon»le members of His Majestys Council to give a sanction to my performance, and engaged to perswade ye Comons House of Assembly to follow their Copy ; But, likewise to continue to take in subscriptions, till ye Books are published, and remit me a Bill, on ye agent, at London, as soon as he has heard, by y° public accounts, of their being in the Press ; I'm hopefull, yowll be pleased to excuse my freedom of infolding, in this, a New-York printed Proposal ; and that y? patriotic temper will incite You to shew it to such Lovers of letters, as frequent your Hall, in order to gain, at least, nominal subscriptions, and give a sanction to the treatise in Europe ; Likewise, yt when I do myself y® honour of writing to you, again, you'll be so kind as to remit me their names, at London, according to request.

Pve room to be pretty certain, that four of y* learned friends, here ; viz, the Rev4 Doctor Aecmody, the Rev4 Doctor Cooper, and ye Revd Messts Inglis & Ogilvie, A. M. will, thro' a true benevolence of heart, recommend me to the notice of y° President of y® Society for propogating y® Gospel, in order to obtain a missionary for our old friendly Chickosahs ; and likewise, their patronage in ye publication of my Indian work.

That, & ye like, I leave to y: own kindness of heart, which always leads and directs you, in support of a: generous cause.
