Transcription
Bentley recommends Mr Weichmann, believing him ‘fit to be admitted of our Royal Society’. Mr Derham is of the same view. Richard Bentley (1662-1742) was a philologist and classical scholar. He was named Master of Trinity College, Cambridge in 1699 (Hugh de Quehen, ‘Bentley, Richard (1662–1742)’, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/2169, accessed 6 Aug 2014]).
