Transcription
De la Pryme apologizes for the confusion, informing Sloane that the package of petrified shellfish mentioned in the last letter was directed to Gresham College by carrier and should be arriving soon. De la Pryme was an antiquary, who established extensive correspondence with other antiquaries such as Nathaniel Johnston, Thomas Gale, Ralph Thoresby, and Sloane. In 1702, on Sloanes proposal, he was elected a fellow of the Royal Society (C. E. A.
