Summary:
Invites Smith to Rochester whilst he is in London. Leaves the decision of his becoming a vice-president of Linnean Society to Smith, warning that his clerical duties restrain his abscences from home. Believes there will be no end to the war "while Buonaparte loves to play at sceptres & balls", has never heard of "such imperious doings [...] since the world began".
