Van Vrijbergen requests information on the Trainer collection. He reminds Sloane that he wants to borrow a book. Marinus van Vrijbergen (1657-1711) was the Dutch envoy to Queen Anne from 1702 until his death in 1711 (James Frederick Chance, Leopold George Wickham Legg, British Diplomatic Instructions 1699-1789, v 32, Offices of the Society, 1922, p 32).
