Sir,

I received the Letter you did me the honour of writing to me the 8th of Sept. last, together with the valuable Present of your most useful Work for our Society, and the other Books for which we return you many Thanks. I have put your Name on the List of Members to be voted for in January next, with my Recommendation join’d to the respected one of M. de Marbois, and have no doubt of our doing ourselves the Honour of making the Choice desired. With great Esteem, I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient and most humble Servant
