Dear Sir,

I propose to communicate
to your Lyceum the result
of examination of the said
carices. I wish you would
be so good as to hand it
at your next meeting
if you please, that
it may go [thence/there?], before
I need to communicate the
substance & some more to
Silliman. I hoped you
would send me that said
Book of Franklin's Voyages etc.

Our Dr. Parks is now
with you, or will call at
your College.

We
hear that Dr. Rice is attending
lectures with you. I hope
you will see he makes no bad
use of our Tickets; he has only a
part of them.

Yours in haste

C. Dewey
