Transcription
Chamberlayne asks Sloane if he has heard anything from Leeuwenhoek. He hopes Sloane will make a correction for him by inserting James Vernon, Esq. into a list, as Chamberlayne cannot attend the Royal Society meeting. He asks that Sloane return Colonel Dudley’s letters. John Chamberlayne was a translator and editor specializing in modern languages which he studied at the University of Leiden. He translated works on many topics, was a fellow of the Royal Society, and published three works in the Philsophical Transactions (Reavley Gair, “Chamberlayne, John (1668/9-1723)”, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Oct 2009 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/5060, accessed 30 May 2011]).
