Eventually convinced that re-

gress and the Benevolent Society of
Friends for assistance towards the
agricultural end of the new ideas he
went to Philadelphia.
While there he was vaccinated
against smallpox but got the gout and
rheumatism instead. Having to con-
verse through an interpreter he paid
no attention when any other was
speaking but waeked around plucking
out his beard and eyebrows. On that
visit he was dressed in English
