The Reverend Alexander Richardson, St. Eustacia to St. George Tucker, 1773 September 18
Scope and Contents
I am now an inhabitant of St. Eustatia and rector of the English Church under the patronage of your worthy friend Richard Jennings. I propose to stay here five years and by that time be able to settle on a place of residence for life. Will consider Europe or Bermuda, but I think Bermuda will have set up a grammar and English school, grammar is quite foreign to the Dutch. I hear you have gotten some little pecuniary as well as honorable office in Virginia if you see Doctor Theodorick Bland please present my compliments.
