Transcription
Hyde returns the books Sloane donated to Oxford because they are duplicates of works already owned by the library. The package will arrive in London tomorrow. He acknowledges the receipt of 45 shillings. Hyde was the librarian of the Bodleian Library from 1665 to 1701. He possessed excellent linguistic skills in eastern languages, especially ancient Persian and Arabic (P. J.
