Transcription
J.H. Kaempfer offered to accept ’20 livres Sterling’ for the ‘Histoire de Japon’ manuscript, compiled by his late uncle Engelbert Kaempfer. Steigertahl forwards the letter to Sloane. He received a catalogue of a work by Mr d’Hattorf, the late counsellor and financial officer to the King in Hanover. Mr Tilson is to deliver the catalogue to Sloane. Prince Frederick is well and has gone for his third hunt. Johann Georg Steigertahl (1666-1740) was the personal physician to George I of England. He was a member of the Royal Society and secured the purchase of Engelbert Kaempfer’s collection of East Asian curiosities for Sir Hans Sloane in 1723 (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Georg_Steigerthal).
