Transcription

Holte thanks Sloane for introducing him to the Royal Society. He tried to call on Sloane to thank him when he was in London, but missed him. Holte sends Sloane the case he promised. Sir Charles Holte (c. 1649-1722), 3rd Baronet Holte, of Aston, was the son of Sir Robert Holte, 2nd Baronet and Jane Brereton (George Edward Cokayne, editor, The Complete Baronetage, 5 volumes (no date (c. 1900); reprint, Gloucester, U.K.: Alan Sutton Publishing, 1983), volume I, page 105).
