Does anyone know the meaning of this? and what hes referring to? https://prnt.sc/hy59fz
It seems he is asking to enlist in the military under General Braddock
Do you know why he would want to enlist in the military?
Patriotism, and for the experience. "The Laudable desire I may have to serve (with my best abilities ) my King and Country" would be the patriotism part.
"I wish earnestly to attain some knowledge of Military Profession" meaning he wants to experience what it is like.
Thank you. Could you help with one more?
Sure.
Do you want me to explain this one as well, or is there a different question?
Yes just explain it
This one seems to be asking John Hughs to agree with their petition to repeal the Stamp Act, even though it may make him less popular with the general public for agreeing. He is also really buttering him up with compliments to help persuade his decision.
Thank you that really helps!
You're welcome!
