Transcription
Plumptre asks that Sloane provide Dr Bayly, the bearer, with ‘the College Licence to Practice’ medicine. Bayly is from the University of Leiden and does not want to be gone ‘from his business at Portsmouth’ for too long. Henry Plumptre (bap. 1680, d. 1746) took an active role in the Royal College of Physicians, eventually serving as its President from 1740 to 1754. He published medical treatises and worked very hard on the Pharmacopoeia Londinensis (A. F. Pollard, Plumptre, Henry (bap. 1680, d. 1746), rev.
