Summary
Asking for information on the "Natural Theology Lectureships which are to be held at the Scotch Universities? I mean as to mode & manner of election & qualification of candidates? I am asking, partly on my own account, partly on that of others. But I dont want to trouble you if the forthcoming Calendars are to contain full information;" sending his compliments to him on "Hume", "...which strikes me as admirable."
