Summary:

Vindicated in his suspicions that Smith's visit to [Nicolaas Laurens] Burman would not be propitious. Offers letters of introduction on the Continent. Has received a living 'Nepenthes' from China as well as two species of 'Grass aromatic' and an "'Armeria' or rather 'Cepia'". 'Holcus odaratus' has rapidly increased in his garden. Has received König's bequest of manuscripts and herbarium, including 'Sanguit draeanis' and 'Gummi gutta' [Johann Gerhard Koenig (1728-1785) German botanist].

[Note in Smith's hand] "with Mr Wadde's curious epistle".
