To:
Smith, Sir James Edward
Sent to location:
Norwich, Norfolk
Summary:
Unoffended by rejection of his paper by Linnean Society and amused by their "squeamishness" over the passage playing on Mr [Lilly?] Wigg's [(1749-1829), clerk in Dawson Turner's bank] name, even though it was omitted and both Smith and Dawson Turner found it unexceptionable, though uncertain whether the attack he made on Mr S's paper [possibly Richard Salisbury] caused this rejection. Will send illustrative specimens to Smith and print the paper privately.
On 1 September broke his inner gastrocnemius muscle and it has recovered from bandaging alone, as advised by Mr Home.
