Transcription
Breyne has sent a box by ‘Capt Anthony Fawell’. He encloses the bill of lading. The box includes a dissertation for the Royal Society. Dr Amman is supposed to send ‘dried plants out of Chelsea Garden’. Breyne has the Philosophical Transactions ‘from 1700 till 1730’. Johann Philipp Breyne (1680-1764) was a German botanist, zoologist, and entomologist known primarily for his work on the Polish cochineal, or Porphyrophora polonica, used in red dye production. He became a fellow of the German Academy of Sciences Leopoldina in 1715 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Philipp_Breyne).
