Describes the poverty of the Colleges in Aberdeen, and the bad effects this has had upon teaching; refers to Jacobite interest at Marischal before 1715 and to the influence of the deprived masters upon the country through schools and meeting houses; and expresses hope that the forts that are to be erected and the armed forces to be supplied will eradicate any disloyalty.
