Nuneham June 7. 1819 Dear Sir, I think you may safely depend on Mr Williams. he has always been an upright and honorable character, and has conducted himself with high principle in some very trying circumstances. His present very serious impressions however have been of gradual, though rapid, growth. I have no doubt, that they are fixed and solid, and that he will not change the purpose, which he has undertaken. Whatever he has professed his willingness to teach, you may rely on his ability to make good, and I think, that any preliminary instruction, which you may think necessary for him, he will take the requisite pains to acquire. I ought to inform you that his wife was formerly an unitarian, but has unequivocally manifested the change of her views by a corresponding change in her character. I regard them both, as humble, decided characters, who will do credit to the appointment, which they desire. I am, Dear Sir, your obedient, humble servant, Edward Garrard Marsh
