Transcription
This letter is not dated, but Sloane wrote a draft answer to it on the verso dated August 24, 1710. Beverland wants to sell some sketches and books, including one on or by Cicero. He mentions the Duke of York. Adrian Beverland was a philosopher, jurist, and Dutch emigre living in England. While at the University of Leiden he wrote a paper on Original Sin for which he was imprisoned and fined. He left the Netherlands in 1679 and lived in London until his death in 1716 after problems with mental illness (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrian_Beverland).
