through this able and wise
endeavor, and when can a
better instrument ably be found,
we shall even have a Southern
Institution, a rival, in every
respect but that of age,
of the best, of the old world
-- And suited to educate
Southern men for Southern
life and Southern homes{?}

I remain with greatest respect

Your ob't Ser'
