Apologises for sending a letter to [Jonas] Dryander with his thoughts following their discussion on how to support the Linnean Society after Smith's move to Norwich, in it he depreciated all division in the Society, asked if he thought Sir Joseph Banks would assist, and had always thought Dryander should succeed Smith. Has written again to Dryander communicating Smith's dissatisfaction with the first having been sent.
