Dear Sir
I have been very unexpectedly pre=
vented from writing to You sooner; but I hope this will
come to You in time, as You will not (I suppose) set
out for Cambridge till next Monday.
I have written 2 Letters by way of Recommenda=
tion, which You will take with you to Cambridge; one
to D^r Hallifax, the other to the University xxx Orator. But
as each of these is a double Letter, and wd. therefore
be expensive by the Post; I have put them both
under a Cover directed to You, & inclosd them to the
Bp of Oxford; where you may have them to morrow
Evening or Sunday.
Pray send me word, when ^{you return from Cambridge; & when} You think You shall be
in Oxford; & I shall be glad to do you any service
in my power.

[fol.036v]
In 2 of 3 days M^r. Woide will have some Proposals for
Himself & for You. And tho’ I shall send some to Holland;
yet I know You can, & will, greatly assist me afterwards.
On 2^d. thoughts I inclose here my Letter to Dr Hallifax,
and inclose only the other for You to the Bp of Oxford.
Let me hear, that you receive this; & you shall soon
hear again from Yours affectionately
