Sir,

            I am a young man who has been brought up in the farming business and having no better prospect before me I wish to go and settle at the Cape of Good Hope. I will pay all my own expenses and furnish myself with farming implements and humbly beg the favour of the same grant of land as is given to those individuals who go in classes – fervently hoping you will grant my request and pardon this if its not come in the proper form

I remain Sir your most ob’t sv’t

James MORLAND
