This memorandum by David Stewart Erskine, the Earl of Buchan, was apparently at one time covering note for a number of letters from Dickinson College President Dr. Charles Nisbet to Erskine. It is known that there was a lively correspondence between Dr. Nisbet and Lord Buchan. "These letters 'tho tainted by a turbulent querulous spirit are specimens of the Tory party in America," as Erskine notes. Transcript included.
