Charles Ignatius Sancho is perhaps best described in his own words, “jolly African, who wishes health and peace to every religion and country throughout the ample range of God’s creation!” (Letter 128) and “The first part of my life was rather unlucky, as I was placed in a family who judged ignorance the best and only security for obedience. A little reading and writing I got by unwearied application. The latter part of my life has been – through God’s blessing, truly fortunate, having spent it in the service of the best families in the kingdom. My chief pleasure has been books. Philosophy I adore.” (Letter 36)
