My Lord,
I received the proposals for sending emigrants to the Cape of Good Hope but I wish to know if the one individual in ten is to have the means of employing & supporting the rest when they are landed, if it is not so, be so kind as to inform me whether government lends the settler any habitation, grain to sow with, agricultural implements, or how it is proposed they are to support themselves till the harvest comes in. There are ten of us ready provided one is allowed to pay the ten pounds for each man and have no controul over the rest.
I am Sir your most obedient humble servant
C. LINDSELL
