Sr Mr Bobart has sent me up […] collection of Hawkweeds, so yt I want none to compare with yr, & let me see you this afternoon if [a?] leisure Yours Ad. Buddle
Buddle received a sample of Hawkweed from Bobart and requests to see Petiver later in the afternoon. Adam Buddle (bap. 1662, d. 1715) was a botanist and an ordained minister with the Church of England. While living in Henley, Suffolk, Buddle corresponded with James Petiver and Samuel Doody. Buddle had an impressive collection of mosses and grasses that he lent to Petiver and Doody, which were later passed on to Tournefort and Bobart. Buddle also acquired several specimens of English flora, which he bequeathed to Sloane. (James Britten, ‘Buddle, Adam (bap. 1662, d. 1715)’, rev.
