Transcription
Chamberlayne wanted to know why he was in arrears at the last Royal Society meeting, but Sloane would not give a reason. When he did, Chamberlayne was unsatisfied, so he repeats his demand. He requests all the Philosophical Transactions published during Sloane’s ‘epoch’ as recompense for the work he has done for the Royal Society. 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]).
