Transcription
Morand received the letter and catalogues of the Royal Society. He passed one of the catalogues on to Geoffroy. Mr Condoydi is traveling to London to deliver a number of new works from l’Académie des sciences. Morand includes a list of the books Sloane can expect to receive. Mr de Reaumureronen received Sloane’s errata and made use of it in the Memoires de l’académie for 1730. Condoydi will give Sloane an illustration of a femur. Sauveur-Francois Morand (1697-1773) was a French surgeon and son of John Morand, surgeon at the Hotel des Invalides. Morand was admitted as a surgeon at the Hotel des Invalides in 1724 at the age of 15. He became a Fellow of the Academie des sciences in 1722, Chief Surgeon of the Hospital of Charity in 1730, and Chief Surgeon of the French Guards in 1739. Morand published several texts on anatomy and surgery (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sauveur-Francois_Morand).
