Shares his views of law, discusses possibly becoming Hobart's classmate and notes that he may take up the law as his profession. Mentions that he is enjoying himself in Pawtuxet because of the females there and wants to know how Aaron is doing with the ladies. Asks Hobart to keep him updated about his exploits with the females and advises him not let the females complain when he is leaving "as Dido did of...Eros." Instead, he should "leave them a young Hobart to play in their streets."
