THAVEL3 IN 
CHAR If. 
Arriving in Carolina very early in the fpring 5 
vegetation was not fufficiently advanced to invite 
me into x the weftern parts of this ftate ; from which 
circumftance, I concluded to make an excurfion 
into Georgia ; accordingly, I embarked on board a 
coafting veifel, and in twenty four hours arrived in 
Savanna, the capital, where, acquainting the go- 
vernor. Sir J. Wright, with my bufinefs, his ex- 
cellency received me with great politenefs, mewed 
Bie every mark of efteem and regard, and furnifh- 
ed me with letters to the principal inhabitants of the 
ftate, which were of great fervice to me. Another 
circumftance very opportunely occurred on my arri- 
val : the affembly was then fitting in Savanna, and 
feveral members lodging in the fame houfe where I 
took up my quarters, I became acquainted with fe- 
veral worthy characters, who invited me to call at 
their feats occasionally, as I paffed through the coun- 
try ; particularly the hon. B. Andrews, efq. a dif- 
tlnguiihed, patriotic, and liberal character. This 
gentleman's feat, and well cultivated plantations, 
are fituated near the fouth high road, which I often 
travelled ; and I feidom palled his houfe without 
calling to fee him, for it was the feat of virtue, 
where hofpiiality, piety, and philofophy, formed 
the happy family ; where the weary traveller and 
ft ranger found a hearty welcome, and from whence 
It muft be his own fault if he departed without being 
greatly benefited.
