of the plan of Education pursued at Hazlewood
School, near Birmingham — and I, Venerable Sir,
having a son nearly twelve years of age that I
am desirous of placing under better tuition than
I can here, in a small town, obtain for him
— tho my station in life is humble, and my
means are slender — if this Hazlewood School
be really what you, Venerable Sir, approve of
I would endeavour to obtain a Prospectus &c —
and see if I could not find the means
of placing my boy there.
I have one Son in London who is employed in
translating from French Manuscripts "a
History of the Norman Conquest its causes and
Consequences" — I believe this work is nearly
completed — but I have not heard of my son of
two, or three weeks best portion. — This work will,
I believe, be published by Messrs Whittakers. —
