Rutkovius Andrew

Rutkovius Andrew, was tutor and travelling companion to George Niemericius in 1631, when that young man was about to undertake a journey into France, in the course of which he proposed to pay Grotius a visit. In allusion to this visit, Ruarus says, in a letter to Grotius, written towards the end of that year, "Perhaps a gentleman of the name of George Niemericius, and his tutor Andrew Rutkovius, will pay their respects to you during the present winter. They are both clever men; and, considering their youth, are possessed of no ordinary share of learning. The former is also a young man of illustrious family. You may safely entrust to their care any reply with which you may think proper to favour me."
