Transcription
Thoresby describes a fish, which is native to the East Indies, brought to him by the Attorney General of North Carolina. Thoresby was an antiquary and topographer. He expanded his fathers Musaeum Thoresbyanum impressively, and his collection brought him into discussion with many important political and scholarly figures (P. E.
