Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

-Lettre du 29 avril 1690 (de Londres): Thanks for his trouble in inspecting the Medals in the Museum. The sea mosses and marine shells which Lhuyd sent him have not yet arrived, to whom must he address himself as to the delay in the delivery of them. Is very sensible of Lhuyd’s great civility. If he has any curiosities Lhuyd may desire they are at his service. Thanks for his respect to Dr. Woodward. (Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Ashmole 1814 fol. 303).
