Wm. Stephens to Mr. Harman Verelst.
submit therefore to the Consideration of the Trust; & must wait their Orders for my future Direction ; in the mean while I am not, nor have been, wanting to give out Caution against all Proceedings of that Kind; wherein there was so much Hazard to themselves, & an Appearance of not a dne Regard to the Trustees.
From what is said about Titles of Lotts, it follows naturally next, to take some Notice of our Surveyor & Register; & 'twere to be wish'd they were each alike capable of Skill to dis- charge the several Offices they are appointed to. Mr. Averys Qualifications that way, will admit of no Doubt (I think) of his Performances with due Exactness; I could only wish that the Powers given him were better known, together with his Instructions thereon; which he often tells us he has expected ever since his Return to be sent after him. In the mean while I can- not avoid saying, that his vain way of talking, & manifying himself; alledging that he is en- gaged to give the Trustees an Accot. of all Tran- sactions ; & that he shall open their Eyes by lay- ing Matters in a fuller Light before 'em, than has been done yet; occasions many People to look on him as invested with some extraordi- nary Commission, & accordingly have frequent Resort to him : all which I can easily smile at, & regard very little, from the long Knowledge I have had of his vaunting Temper : but some who are join'd with me as Assistants for Advice, appear very cautious, & doubtfull, in giving their Opinion relating to what M'. Avery does;
Mr. Avery's qualifica. tions as register and surveyor admits of no doubt.
Mr. Avery's vain way of talking.
CORRESPONDENCE

Wm. Stephens to Mr. Harman Verelst.
for which Reason I have thought it needfull to bestow a few Lines enclosed setting forth in a great Measure some of the principal Things they seem to stumble at, & we all wish to get the honble Trustees Direction in.
I forbear being tiresome in adding more on this Head at present, & shall be glad to find no farther Occasion: what I have said being far from meaning any ill Will to Mr. Avery; but solely to get a right Understanding, that we do not err in our Duty, & thereby preserve that Amity which at present subsists, & I hope al- ways will betwixt us.
I would fain get a well grounded Hope of see- ing our Register carry on that Work to Effect; which hitherto little Progress has been made in : Nevertheless I beg leave to postpone vet once more writing pointedly thereon, till my next; & then, unless I find more Improvement, the Ten- derness I wish to shew towards Mr. Dobell, must give Place to that Duty I owe to the Trust, in concealing no Defects that may be detrimental to their good Designs
Mr. Spencer's Incapacity for so long Time to give us his Assistance (occasion'd by such a grievous Sickness; wherein also he unhappily lost his Wife & many of his Effects) we have look'd on as a great Misfortune on us also, for- asmuch as his concurrent Opinion with us, would in many Things have added Strength to our Determinations By the last Advices from Fred- erica, we were put in hopes of seeing him short-
Some of the principal things needful of the Trustees' direction.
Little progress made by Mr. Dobell as register.

Wm. Stephens to Mr. Harman Vereist.
Disposed of niece and maid servant In matrimony.
ly, from the Acc: given us of his being grown pretty chearfull abroad again; but what de- tain'd him at present, we were told, was his dis- posing of his Neice & Maid Servant in Matri- mony, who had Husbands provided for 'em. What farther Cause may happen of detaining him there longer, I know not.
A doubt arisen relating to allowances.
In the Minutes of Proceedings of the Presi- dent & Assistants on the 29th Jan' last (which ! beg leave to referr to) you'll find a Doubt arisen among us relating to the Payment of a Years Allowance to some Familys, formerly made a Present of by the Trustees to Ebenezer: where- in I had Directions from the Board, to apply for the Trust's Orders: which you'll please to resolve us in.
Waiting every Day to catch hold of the first Opportunity for conveying my Packett to Char- les Town, by some trading Boat passing down the River, I stop here to be ready & remain
Sir Your most humble Servant Will: Stephens.
To
M' Harman Verelst
P. S. The long time I have waited for an Opportunity to send off my Packett, gives me room to add to it Coppy of a letter from the General of the 22 Mar. herewith.
