Boys again with him. Their moral and literary character will be well attended. The German out of town but hears his price is exorbitant: $4 per month, $8 in advance, for attendance every other day. Does not remember whether his price was £33 or £35 but will abide by whatever Tucker understood.

Received a letter from James Mathews of Maryland, who lodged an attachment in the hands of Mr. Nicholas. We sent you a letter expressing his surprise that we had not received and remitted his money. What answer shall be made Mr. Mathews?
Walker Maury, The Grove to St. George Tucker, 1784 January 9
Has written thrice on subject of removal of school in Williamsburg. Increased price would not be unreasonable, but probably will be left to generosity of others. If Tucker does not wish to add anything to payments, boys will still have comfortable quarters in Capitol. Will keep one common table at own home until larger number of boys warrant one in Capitol. Has good assistant. Day of school opening is earlier here. Boys' baggage here.

Walker Maury, Williamsburg to St. George Tucker, Matoax, 1784 January 14
Surprised Tucker did not receive his three former letters on subject of removal of school to Williamsburg. Will take few boys into family altogether and charge 5 guineas extra. Others will lodge at Capitol under assistant and eat at his house. Hopes to have Mrs. Tucker's three sons.
