Transcription
Molyneux thanks Sloane for recommending Sir Andrew Fontaine, an expert in medals and coins. They very quickly became friends. Molyneux is very happy to be working under Lord Pembroke. He asks for a copy of Sloane’s book. Thomas Molyneux was a physician and natural philosopher who corresponded with Sloane, Edward Lhuyd, and John Locke (J. B.
