Wrote to him by Captain Woolford. Also to Doctor Archibald Campbell, John Gilchrist and Innes. Hopes St. George safely arrived. Transmitted narrative of brother Tom's (Thomas Tudor Tucker) dispute with Robert Williams to Bermuda. Brother fined £100 this currency and 10 days imprisonment for challenging to duel. Also £50 for publishing libel. Lieutenant-governor remitted imprisonment and payment of £50. Begins to despair of brother's ability to assist self in prosecution of studies in physic. Lately removed to another house in same street. Widow (Mrs. Dodd) not with them. Brother's matrimonial project distant. Esther Evans well calculated to render him happy. Mistake of exactly month in date of all letters self wrote by Woolford. Sent copy of Bermudian to Doctor Blacklock in Edinburgh. Requested him to direct impression of 2000 copies. Hopes 2000 copies St. George to print will sell in colonies. 300 will be enough for this place. In case of second edition would send "Hermit" to press. Concluded to dub it "The Philosophical Anchorite" Recommends his sending 500 or 600 copies of Bermudian to Rivington in New York. Postage on single letter only amounts to two pistareens. Remembrances to Dr. and Mrs. Archibald Campbell, Mr. and Mrs. Gilchrist and children (November 23. Account of Gilchrist's having shot himself in Wells' paper. Hears Colin Campbell killed in duel with Skinner. Asks if difference between Skinner and Campbell gave rise to domestic uneasiness which affected Gilchrist's sensiblity. He was far from friend of Scot whom rest of family patronized. Will comply with St. George's request to write elegy on subject if Muse inspires. Afraid feuds run high in Norfolk. Likes it less than any part of Virginia. Received no letter from Dr. Campbell. Sorry own letter with account of dispute between Williams and brother did not arrive in Bermuda before he left. Defense of brother attracted approbation of many in New York and Philadelphia. Tucker nettled at being contradicted in newspapers by Williams under signature "Benevolus." He sent Williams by Same Legare challenge to duel if refused to recant. Infamy of Williams posted in coffee house by challenger. November 26. Brother thinks if could raise £100 by American edition of Bermudian could embark in spring for Edinburgh. Asks what likely to raise by Bermudian which supposes St. George has published. Opportunties (for sending letters) from New York and Philadelphia to Charleston almost every week. Requests St. George to open subscription for "The Philosophical Anchorite" with view of printing it (November 28). Todd sails this day. Best wishes to Major and Beverley as well as rest of college acquaintances. Regards to Mr. and Mrs. Page, Secretary Thomas Nelson and lady, Colonel and Mrs. Nelson, Mr. and Mrs. Burwell, Mr. and Mrs. Cocke, young ladies, Miss Grymes, Andrews, etc. Asks when St. George commences practice of law. Hopes Major and Beverley received his letters. Afraid opportunites to Bermuda rare this year since they have no corn. To write severe epistle in verse on Williams.
