Transcription
Chamberlayne thanks Sloane for helping him complete his collection of Philosophical Transactions for the years 1700 and 1701. He asks Sloane to post the enclosed letter to Leeuwenhoek. If Sloane does not feel Dudley’s works are worth publishing he should return them, as Chamberlayne does not have copies of them. John Chamberlayne was a translator and editor specializing in modern languages which he studied at the University of Leiden. He translated works on many topics, was a fellow of the Royal Society, and published three works in the Philsophical Transactions (Reavley Gair, “Chamberlayne, John (1668/9-1723)”, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Oct 2009 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/5060, accessed 30 May 2011]).
