TRAVELS til 
C H A P. II. 
Arriving in Carolina very early in the ipring* 
vegetation was not fuffidently advanced to invite 
me into the we item parts of this flare ; from which 
circumftance, I concluded to make an excurfion 
into Georgia; accordingly, I embarked on board a 
coafting veffel, and in twenty-four hours arrived in 
Savanna, the capital, where, acquainting the go- 
vernor, Sir J. Wright, with my bminefs, his ex- 
cellency received me with great politenefs, fhewed 
me every mark of efteem and regard, and furnifh- 
ed me with letters to the principal inhabitants of 
the flate, which were of great fervice to me. An- 
other circumflance very opportunely occurred on 
my arrival : the aiTembly was then fitting in Sa- 
vanna, and feveral members lodging in the fame 
houfe where I took up my quarters, I became ac- 
quainted with feveral worthy characters, who in- 
vited me to call at their feats occafionally, as I 
paffed through the country; particularly the horn 
B. Andrews, efq. a drftinguiihed, patriotic, and li- 
beral charaCler. This gentleman’s feat, and well 
cultivated plantations, are fituated near the fouth 
high road, which I often travelled; and I feldom 
paffed his houfe without calling to fee him, for it 
was the feat of virtue, where hofpitality, piety, 
and philo fophy, formed the happy family; where 
the weary traveller and ftranger found a hearty 
welcome, and from whence it muff be his own 
fault if he departed without being greatly be- 
nefited.
