Nothing would give him greater pleasure than that a countryman
of his & one that were capable of profiting by it should have the
benefit of your instruction. On that account it grieved him to think
that Afan. (as he feared) would not come up to that design. He is a
very good lad but his education has not gone beyond writing and
reading, and drawing a little in Eames's Mold-loft.

To save time I will speak write in future in Sambouski's
person.

"Afan: is just come away from Mishers's. He could not
"bear to stay there any longer. They gave him for a Bedfellow a
"Mulatto prentice who used him brutally: amongst other things taking
"offence for at him for disturbing some birds the Mulatto was going
"to shoot at, he (the Mulatto) fired at him & shot him in the
"breast."
