A letter to an honourable gentleman of the Council-Board, for the colony of Connecticut : shewing that Yale-College is a very great emolument, and of high importance to the state: consequently, that it is the interest and duty of the commonwealth to afford it publick countenance and support: and wherein such objections are considered and obviated as would probably be made against the tenor of such reasoning. By a friend of college, the church and his country. [Nine lines of quotations].
