Transcription
Steigertahl learned of a proposal seeking to establish a medical society in Nuremberg. Heister has published a catalogue of plants from the garden at Helmstadt. Steigertahl thanks Sloane for sending the Philosophical Transactions with Jäger. He praises Sloane’s Presidency of the Royal Society. Steigertahl’s wife is in good health. 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).
