Transcription

Milward is writing to Sloane to update him on his move and informs Sloane that he declined his invitation to visit in person because he thought that that would encroach too much on his time. He would like to visit sometime in the future when it is leisurely, either at Sloane’s house or at Milward’s new place at new north street. Edward Milward (1711/12-1757), physician and writer was educated at Trinity College Cambridge but left without graduating and acquired his doctor of medicine from a European university, probably Leiden. His main interests were medical writers of antiquity on which he wrote many essays.

[fol. 131] [I] could heartily wish I could be present on Wednesday, but did think the Society was gott over the matter… mention this last councell day: for it was carried… a great plurality of Voices, that the Dr had offended, and that the grimaces he sais he apprehended you [to] make, being subject to a dubious interpretation, and unobserved by my self )who saw you all the while) and overall others present, should first be disowned by you, as to the intention of any looks or actions: and that then the Dr for his words, which could not be denyed, should begg your pardon before the Society, with a promise not to do the like for the future. I belive the Councell will continue of the same sentiments: but if you think any thing i can say may be serviceable to you; I shall again be in town the latter end of this week, and will if need be give my voidance vivâ voce, at another Councell you may easilygott for the week following. I am sorry you have all this trouble being Sr Your most obedt Servt. Edm: Halley

Edmond Halley left Oxford without an undergraduate degree to travel the world, giving him the opportunity to study astronomy on the spot. Upon returning to England he had a prestigious career and collaborated with Sir Isaac Newton, entered the public service, served as a professor at Oxford, and was appointed Astronomer Royal in 1721 (Alan Cook, “Halley, Edmond (1656-1742)”, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, May 2009 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/12011, accessed 1 June 2011]).

Transcription

Byrd received Sloane’s letter ‘of the 7th of December last’. He has been looking ‘more narrowly for Mecoacanna’. He collected ’30 pounds’ last year, but was told it would cost ‘forty shillings and pound’ to ship and subject to a customs duty. Instead, he shipped an unspecified amount to Sloane. Byrd would like to know if it sells better as the whole root or cut into smaller quantities. If it sold well he would ship a ‘great Quantity’ in future. He shipped the product in a ‘Running ship’ and planned to send ‘some Raritys… by our Fleet’. Byrd inquires after the Royal Society and praises America for allowing men like himself to make a business out of ‘the works of nature’. He asks for Sloane’s ‘account of Jamaica’ and any other accounts of travel abroad, which he would pay for ‘out of the profits of the Cargo’. The cargo was sent with Captain Posford on the Harrison. He directs Sloane to a Mr Perry at ‘Leaden hall street for the ship’. William Byrd was a landowner, diarist, and agent of the colony of Virginia in London from 1697 to 1704. He returned to Virginia on the death of his father and served the colony in several capacities (Paul David Nelson, Byrd, William (16741744), Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/68334, accessed 2 July 2013]).

[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.

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.

Derham was a Church of England clergyman and a natural philosopher, interested in nature, mathematics, and philosophy. He frequently requested medical advice from Sloane, and likely served as a physician to his family and parishioners (Marja Smolenaars, “Derham, William (1657-1735)”, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/7528, accessed 7 June 2011]).
