instruct the _Indians_ and
_English_ Youth there in the Grounds of Religion, and read Lectures of
Morality to the senior Lads, and to read Prayers and preach in the
College as Chaplain: This I am certain is very much wanting, and what
the present Income of the College with good Management will easily allow
of; therefore I hope particular Notice will be taken hereof.

There is as yet no great Occasion for the Hall, so that it might be made
a Chapel and Divinity-School, for which Purpose it would serve nobly
with little or no Alterations.

As there is lately built an Apartment for the _Indian_ Boys and their
Master, so likewise is there very great Occasion for a Quarter for the
Negroes and inferior Servants belonging to the College; for these not
only take up a great deal of Room and are noisy and nasty, but also have
often made President and others apprehensive of the great Danger of
being burnt with the College, thro' their Carelessness and Drowsiness.

Another thing prejudicial to the College, is the Liberty allowed the
Scholars, and the negligent Observance of College Hours, and the
Opportunity they have of rambling Abroad.

To remedy this, there is wanting some Contrivance to secure the Youth
within the College at certain Hours; which has hitherto been in vain
attempted, because of the many Servants lodged in the College, and the
several Doors and Ways to get out of it.

Likewise the Privileges and Apartments of the President and Masters, and
House-Keeper, _&c._ ought to be fix'd and ascertain'd; for these being
precarious and doubtful, upon this Account has arose much Difference and
Ill-Will, to the great Scandal of the College, and Detriment of
Learning.

Little additional Charge would put the Government of the College upon a
much better Footing; whereas at present it scarcely merits the name of a
College.

As for Election of a Burgess in Pursuance to a Clause in the Charter, he
ought to be chosen by the President and as many Masters as there shall
actually be at any Time.

The Charter mentions six Masters or Professors, but does not specify the
Professions; it directs to the making of Statutes and founding
Scholarships, but the particulars are left to the Discretion of the
Managers; and some such Establishment as this here mentioned may not be
improper, especially if for greater Encouragement the Surveyors of each
County were to be appointed by the President and Masters, out of such as
have taken a Batch
