Hyde sends his latest proposals. He has already printed 25 pages of his book and many of his friends have been kind enough to subscribe to it. He thanks Sloane for the latest Philosophical Transactions. Hyde was the librarian of the Bodleian Library from 1665 to 1701. He possessed excellent linguistic skills in eastern languages, especially ancient Persian and Arabic (P. J. Marshall, Hyde, Thomas (16361703), Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/14336, accessed 19 June 2013]).

Copley thanks Sloane for updating him on the activities of the Royal Society and asks for the latest Philosophical Transactions. He can be reached through ‘Mr John Marshall Barber in Doncaster’. A carrier at the Red Lion in Aldersgate services Doncaster. Copley is glad Mr Middleton and Mr Halley were back in England. A French man ‘takes ye best method for giving Nauseous Medicines’. Mr Kirk is investigating the method and Sir Robert Southwell is to test it. Copley asks Sloane to pass his best wishes on to ‘Sr J. Hoskins & Sr Rob: Southwell’. Sir Godfrey Copley was a politician and active member of the Royal Society. He was elected a Fellow of the latter in 1691 (C. I.

[fol. 204] Sr Upminster Nov 8 1710 I give you many thanks for your wch I recd Yesterday. I intended to have waited on you this day, but the great danger my wife is in prevents me. She was on Fryday night seized wth a violent pain under her Collar bone, wch went under the right breast, accompanied wth a small feavr next day. She was blooded ξ x,the first of wch was fizy, the last not so, no great cough Her pain continuing very acute She was blooded ξ xii on Sunday, & no fize. On wch the pains removed from her breast to her Thighs &c. Her pulse was low & quick, but she was droughty, yet her Tongue moist, & not very white; but no sleep. Last night her pain returned into her breast, & not a wink of sleep, more feavourish, very faint & weak. I forgot to tell you yt in ye afternoon yesterday she had 4 or 5 loose stools, & is still griped in her Guts, but no stool all night. She was blooded ξ x This morning at 5 of clock, & her blood all very fizy, & worse them at all her Tongue is dryer, she was droughty, & her cough encreased: She raises crude tough, phlegmatick stuff reddish as if intermired wth blood. I suppose I judge her case peripneumonick. I beg the favour of your best advice, the life of the best of wives being concerned, & you being the person she pitched upon for directions in her dangerous case. I have not time to ansr your kind Ld particularly, only I will go over myself (wn I can) & view what occasion for Timber, and assign it Culverwell. I had like to have forgotten to tell you she lay in about 9 weeks since, had a good time, but no fluxes since, nor I believe wth child, but they have dodged about her this fortnight, & she had the piles 3 or 4 days since. Her Legs & arms swell a little especially about the joints. She took a gentle vomit on Saturday, wch worked well. She hath used some pectorals as far as her avertion to Medicine would permit: & now follows Ol. Lin: wth pector. Syrups & Sal Prunel. Also Drops of Sal Armen. the testaceous powders, & a Decoct: of Red. Gram: ras: l.l. passal: Li- quorish oz. I am in greatest hope Yr much obliged humble servt Wm Derham

Derham was a Church of England clergyman and a natural philosopher, interested in nature, mathematics, and philosophy.

Dereham congratulates Sloane on his appointment as President of the Royal Society. He thanks Sloane for noticing his contributions to the Society. He will continue to encourage his ‘learned freinds’ to ‘promote the knowledge of nature’. Dereham hopes to send the Society a map of Venus by Monsieur Bianchini, whose observations offer a new understanding of its revolutions. Signor Riccetti has written a book that confutes Newton’s optics demonstrations. Dereham believes the Society should examine it. Sir Thomas Dereham (c. 1678-1739) was a British expatriate and Roman Catholic who lived in Italy. He had a close association with the Royal Society (https://collections.royalsociety.org/DServe.exe?dsqIni=Dserve.ini&dsqApp=Archive&dsqCmd=Show.tcl&dsqDb=Persons&dsqPos=0&dsqSearch=%28Surname%3D%27dereham%27%29).

The English Ambassador delivered the books Sloane sent to the Bibliotheque du Roi four days ago. Abbé Bignon was very thankful. He wants a particular translation of Pliny’s Natural History if Sloane can get it. Bignon recommended Sloane’s Natural History of Jamaica to some ‘Journalistes’ so they can publish an extract to promote it. He recommended Dr Woodward as an associate of the Academie des sciences. Woolhouse hopes Woodward finds more candidates to compete for the surgical position that opened up. Abbé Tarquier was proposed as a translator for Sloane’s Natural History of Jamaica, which can be printed by Dr Nogaise in Holland. A copy of Sloane’s book went to the Sorbonne. John Thomas Woolhouse was an English oculist and physician. He practiced physic in London, served James II for a time, and in 1711 secured a position at Paris’s Hospice des Quinze-Vingts. He served as the King of France’s oculist, was elected a fellow of the Royal Society in 1721, and a member of both the Berlin Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Sciences of Bologna. Woolhouse was criticized for charlatanry by some contemporaries (Anita McConnell, Woolhouse, John Thomas (16661734), Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/29954, accessed 17 July 2013]).
