Transcription
Steigertahl sends the two receipts issued by Johann Hermann Kaempfer, nephew of the late Engelbert Kaempfer, for the purchase of the latter’s collection. The King left Hanover on Thursday. Steigertahl is to follow him on Monday. He thanks Sloane for ‘ce petit traite: Litsotomus castratus’. 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).
