[031v]
Professor, & dare venture to prphecy, Your
son will one day make a conspicous figure
in Europe, & raise himself to as great an
eminence in the Republic of Letters as his
Father & Grandfather have done
before him. A higher degree either of Skill
or Reputation, it will not perhaps be
possible for him to attain. -- --------------
I speak the more feelingly on this subject,
as I have received so much pleasure as
well as profit from Mr. Schulten's good
company, & as I fear we must now so soon
lose him, at least for a time. However,
as he speaks our language at present
as well as a Native, I hope he will
now & then come over & see us, if it
be but for a little practice in it.
