Charlett writes of the catalogue he had previously mentioned and the collections of various individuals. Charlett was elected Master of University College at Oxford in 1692 and held that post until his death in 1722. Charlett used the mastership to gain influence, especially through persistent letter-writing to numerous correspondents, sharing the latest literary, political, and scholarly gossip (R. H.

Barham forwards a list of 34 seeds, which he had sent to the ‘Physick Garden’ in Chelsea. He is pleased that some of the seeds have matured and are successfully ‘brought to perfection in Great Brittain’. His new book is about American plants. He has tentatively titled it the ‘Hortus Americanus Medecinalis’. Henry Barham (1670?-1726) was a botanist. He lived in Jamaica and corresponded with Sloane on the plant and animal life of the island. Parts of Barham’s letters to Sloane appeared in the latter’s Natural History of Jamaica (T. F. Henderson, Barham, Henry (1670?1726), rev.

Bobart sends Sloane the third part of Oxford’s History of Plants. He does not know how much it will cost. He asks Sloane to offer a critique of the book, as he believes it is rife with defects, and reminds Sloane of a promise he made to send some seeds to Oxford. Jacob Bobart (1641-1719) was a botanist and son of Jacob Bobart, the elder (c.1599-1680). He worked with his father at the Oxford Physic Garden for nearly 40 years (D. E. Allen, ‘Bobart, Jacob, the younger (1641–1719)’, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/2742, accessed 5 June 2015]).

Folio: ff. 48-49

Transcription

Ray thanks Sloane for providing botanical specimens for his work. He is returning the specimens he is finished with. Ray informs Sloane that he is largely done his Supplements, except for the section on dendrology. He would like to send it to Sloane to read over the parts that relate to Jamaican flora. Ray laments that he does not live in London and cannot go view the plants in the gardens. Math deductions are present on fol. 48, written in Sloane’s hand. Ray was a theologian and naturalist who collected and catalogued his botanical findings in the much lauded Historia plantarum (1686, 1688) (Scott Mandelbrote, Ray , John (16271705), Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Oct 2005 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/23203, accessed 18 June 2013]).

Plumptre asks that Sloane provide Dr Bayly, the bearer, with ‘the College Licence to Practice’ medicine. Bayly is from the University of Leiden and does not want to be gone ‘from his business at Portsmouth’ for too long. Henry Plumptre (bap. 1680, d. 1746) took an active role in the Royal College of Physicians, eventually serving as its President from 1740 to 1754. He published medical treatises and worked very hard on the Pharmacopoeia Londinensis (A. F. Pollard, Plumptre, Henry (bap. 1680, d. 1746), rev.

SIR,-I should be of the mind, that to supersede the

use of botanic authors, and make your history everyway complete, it would be necessary to mention all the varie- ties of the Harts-tongues, for instance, to be found in any catalogue or garden; and so of all other herbs; for it will much please the humours of men, and the possessors or admirers of such varieties may take it ill to have what they esteem so much left out. Therefore, if at the end of each species there were named all the variations, I think it would not be amiss, especially considering it would tend to the giving of a fuller history of the plant itself, and that it may hinder mistakes.

I have two sorts of the Bangue, which were sent from

two several places of the East Indies: they both differ much from our Hemp, although they seem to differ most as to their magnitude; I do not in the least doubt but these sorts of Bangue are those with which the Indians use to provoke venery; the leaves, and all the plant, not being carefully dried, makes a good description from them impossible.

I have been told by several, that Muscelin (so much in

use here for cravats) and Calligo, and the most of the Indian linens, are made of nettles, and I see not the least improbability but that they may be made of the fibres of them.
London, Jan. 31, [1684/5]

Letter destination presumed as Black Notley as Ray’s location in his prior and letter and response to Sloane is Black Notley. Ray was also considered not to have left Black Notley after 1679.
