Dear Sir,

On my arrival here I discover by a letter from Mr. Johnson to Genl. Cocke, that Doctor Patterson of Philadelphia is not a candidate for the vacant chair of Natural Philosophy in our University. I now concur in the appointment of Doctor Thomas Jones of Philadelphia, to fill that chair. I am, dear Sir, very respectfully & truly yrs.
