Transcription
Buddle discusses various botanical tribes and Bobart’s scholarship. He stresses how much he looks forward to helping Sloane in his botanical work as he intends to ‘ply’ his neighbouring shores for shells as soon as it gets a bit warmer. Buddle was a botanist who collected information ont he flora of England throughout his life, bequeathing them to Sloane upon his death in 1715 (James Britten, Buddle, Adam (bap. 1662, d. 1715), rev.
