Transcription
Waller was pleased to hear the Royal Society is doing well. He tells Sloane that he did not have the journals or registers Sloane is seeking. Waller only has the Books of Minutes from November 22, 1693 to July 15, 1696. He believes that Dr Hooke, most likely Robert Hooke, has the registers. Richard Waller was a natural philosopher and translator who worked as the Royal Society’s secretary. He also served on its council and edited the Philosophical Transactions (Lotte Mulligan, Waller, Richard (c.16601715), Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/48707, accessed 19 June 2013]).
