Transcription
Sellius sends his compliments on behalf of the new society established at Nuremberg, of which he is a member. He sends the society’s ‘feuilles’ and hopes that Sloane can procure subscriptions for them in England. He knows Sloane to be a competent judge of such things. Sellius recently married and established himself as an ‘Avocat à la Cour Provinciale d’Utrecht’. Gottfried Sellius (1704-1767) was a German academic, translator, and initiator of the project that led to the production of the Encyclopédie. He studied at Marburg and Leiden and was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1733 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gottfried_Sellius).
