Transcription
Geoffroy thanks Sloane for his hospitable reception. He discusses the medicinal properties of plants as relayed in the Memoires de l’academie. Claude Joseph Geoffroy (1685-1752) was a chemist, apothecary, botanist, and member of both l’Academie des sciences and Royal Society. His brother was the clergyman and librarian to Louis XIV Etienne Francois Geoffroy (https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claude-Joseph_Geoffroy).
