The Lord Bishop of London wants Ray to send a representative to discuss procuring figures for his History of Plants. Ray had asked Sherard to do it, but Sherard was stuck in Portsmouth. Ray asks Sloane to do him the favour of taking Sherard’s place, as Sloane already knows the bishop. 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]).

    Name: N/A John Ray
    Gender:
    Age:74 years old.
  • Description
  • Diagnosis

    Diarrhea; painful leg sores.

  • Treatment
    Previous Treatment:

    A Poor Woman's diet drink; oak bark, ribwort, mouse ear, comfrey, cinquefoil, all boiled in ale. Ray drank this for a week.


    Ongoing Treatment:

    Sir Thomas Millington, believing that no outward applications would help, has prescribed a plum antiscorbutick diet drink, which Ray has taken for two weeks.


    Response:

    The diet drink did not dry up Ray's sores, but it did cure his diarrhoea - the barrel of drink leaked and Ray lost the rest of the dose. He is not upset, believing that while the drink would eventually cure his sores, drinking so much of it would be bad for his health in other ways. Millington's diet drink is having no effect.
