Summary:
Hopes Smith's move to Norwich is successful. [Jonas] Dryander opposes [Richard] Salisbury's plan to publish "the heaths" with new names that are expressive of their differences ['Species of 'Erica'', "Linnean Transactions"]. Royal Society news: Prince William of Gloucester [and Edinburgh (1743-1805)] was proposed and a paper on the freezing of quicksilver with nitrous acid was read. Asks to be remembered to [John] Pitchford. Smith's turkey "excellent".
