Since I finished and Sealed my former Letter to you the Vestry of this Parish at Brunswick have met and sent me a Petition to forward to the Society recommending Mr. Mc.Dowell fixed in this Parish upon Account of his great Charge and Expense which the Parish can’t yet properly bear, and certifying his good Character and Care of his Parish in doing his Duty and assisting other adjoying Parishes. 

I therefore join with them in their Application as it is the Parish I reside in and propose it when the Church is finished which is now roofing, to be His Majesty’s Chapel in this Government to which he has been pleased to give the Communion plate Surplice and Furniture for the Communion Table and Pulpit, with a Bible and Common prayer Books to have the Service perform’d with Decency—I therefore hope the venerable Society will think it for the Service of the established Church in this Province to put so deserving a Clergyman upon their List of Missionaries as this Church will be the largest and most compleat in this Province, and may be an Exemplar for building other Churches.
