P. S.
You will be pleased I hope to excuse me,
should the address on the exterior of this
letter not be in accordance with exact
propriety and complimentary usage.
N.B. In a previous communication I expressed a
desire to be informed whether any documents
(written or printed) were still extant //among//inthe
archives of your Institution, relative to //the// history
of Georgia. Any information in this respect
would be thankfully acknowledged. A gentleman
of this state is now engaged in collecting materials
for the purpose of composing its history. The
trouble which may be incurred in such research
and enquiries will be remunerated and gratefully received.C. F. Bergman
