Tips from 1870

Usage: Shall you Will you. The distinction between shall and will in the interrogative forms of the second person are not very clearly defined. Many writers and speakers use them interchangeably. The answer should have the same auxiliary as the question.
"Shall you go to town to-morrow?" "I shall."
"Will you attend to this matter promptly?" "I will." Source: Slips of Speech.
