Transcription
Kisner sends some of his writings with a packet from Ehrhart. He is researching minerals with the support of Lund, Woodward, and Petiver. Kisner has a small cabinet of curiosities and plans on publishing a catalogue of its contents. He hopes the natural historical work of the late Mr Wolfart is published and briefly discusses botany. A physician from ‘Altorff’ wants his work published in the Philosophical Transactions. Kisner laments the death of John Gaspar Scheuchzer. Johann Georg Kisner (fl. 1708-20s) was a German physician and collector of natural history.
