Transcript
madam,
At the same time that I acquaint your Ladyship of my being in the place, I must acquaint your Ladyship that I am leaving it again, & propose to do myself the further honour of writing to you hereafter. I got there upon Sunday evening; & by that means, so as to have my Doctor's Degree upon my back the next day. HIs Grace of Newcastle received me very civilly & I believe that it will be my turn, soon, to be his Vice-Chancellor. That will be the employment of one year; & it will be the employment of every one, to acknowledge myself,
Madam,
Your Ladyship's most obliged & very devoted servant
G. Sandby
