Transcription
Copley has not asked his Lord the questions Sloane forwarded to help Copley find a suitable governor. Copley states that he believes his Lord’s last governor was a military man. He relays the dates that he will be in town and hopes to meet with Sloane. He is glad Mr Halley has returned home. Sir Godfrey Copley was a politician and active member of the Royal Society. He was elected a Fellow of the latter in 1691 (C. I.
