Having proved successful, he determined, in 1694, to accept a call to Jamestown, so as to be nearer to the institution of which he had been appointed president. He was also made a member of the council, and thus his influence was felt in church, col- lege and state. On Sunday, April 25, 1703, Rev. George Keith entered the following in his journal : " I preached at James- town on John I. 3, at the request of Reverend Mr. Blair, min- ister there, and commissary, who very kindly and hospitably ent...ertained us at his house." Dr. Blair remained minister of Jamestown till 1710, when he accepted the office of rector of Bruton Church and removed to Williamsburg that he might be still closer to the college which had been destroyed by a fire and was then being rebuilt. Under him the first full professorships of mathematics and natural science in the United States were established at the college. Dr. Blair acted as chief executive in the absence of Sir William Gooch in the Carthagena expedition, from June, 1740, to July, 1741.
