Transcription
Brydges writes to Sloane asking for his favour, if Sloane knows anyone who is a good operator in mines and extracting metal out of Earths as he has had some Earth samples sent to him. James Brydges, 1st Duke of Chandos (1674-1744) was a politician, patron of the arts, and, like Sloane, on the Board of Governors of the Foundling Hospital.
