Transcription
[fol. 263] Whitehall Mar: 23d 1710 Dr. Sloan By my father’s direction a Modell is made of the room for the Repository of the Royal-Society in Crane Court, which may give the Gentlemen a better idea, then the designe on paper. It will be very light, very commodious, and the cheapest building that can be contrived: I have sent the Joyner with it to you, that you may take the opportunity to show at the Councill; it will be necessary not to loose the season of the year in the execution. I shall indeavour to attend the next meeting, and am yr most obed.t hum.e servt. Chr: Wren
