Henshaw reminds Sloane of the promise he made to provide Henshaw with melon and Jamaican gourd seeds, as it is sowing season. He provides Sloane with mailing instructions. Henshaw was an alchemist who published in the Philosophical Transactions and translated the work of others (Jennifer Speake, Henshaw, Thomas (16181700), Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/12989, accessed 25 June 2013]).
