Timon will pardon Hotchkiss for not writing by his son William Hotchkiss When he left for the seminary. Hotchkiss did not intend his leaving here until the day after. Hotchkiss intended to mention that he wished him to study reading, writing, and arithmetic. His son has imbibed all the bad qualities incident to the youth of Kaskaskia; Hotchkiss has paid for about 3 years tuition and has received a very poor acquittance?. He still hopes that his son may yet make the man that nature has designed him to be for he has a good share of talent and first rate principles. On the address side: Per his son, Guy Hotchkiss. :: IV-3-j A.L.S. 2pp. folio
