Transcription
Steigertahl asks whether Sloane is willing to show his collection of curiosities to visitors. If he is, a group will be coming tomorrow morning to see it. Johann Georg Steigertahl (1666-1740) was the personal physician to George I of England. He was a member of the Royal Society and secured the purchase of Engelbert Kaempfer’s collection of East Asian curiosities for Sir Hans Sloane in 1723 (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Georg_Steigerthal).
