A letter from the Revd Mr. Sergeant of Stockbridge, to Dr. Colman of Boston : containing Mr. Sergeant's proposal of a more effectual method for the education of Indian children, to raise 'em if possible into a civil and industrious people, by introducing the English language among them, and thereby instilling into their minds and hearts, with a more lasting impression, the principles of virtue and piety : made publick by Dr. Colman at the desire of Mr. Sergeant, with some general account of what the Rev. Mr. Isaac Hollis of ---- has already done for the sons of this Indian tribe of Houssatannoc, now erected into a township by the General Court, and called Stockbridge.
