My Lord
Having been informed that a settlement is about to be formed at the Cape of Good Hope by Emigrants from England. I take the liberty to request if Your Lordship could inform me if any advantages are held out to Officers on Half Pay who may wish to join the Emigrants, and what are the general terms on which settlers of good education are received among the Emigrants
I have the honour to be your Lordships most obed’t ser’t
Tho LYTE
