[Thomas] Hare wishes to dedicate a medical work to Smith. Recently hosted a party attended by Gray, Bennett, Edward Hartford, William Smith, Taylor, and Gibson. Believes the 'Silene' he found at Binfield, [Berkshire], is not 'S. lusitanica'; observations, including small ink sketch of petals; requests specimens to compare it against. [William Jackson] Hooker's "Flora Scotia" to be published soon.
[Note attached to verso of second folio] Title of Hare's book is "Considerations on the Structure, Functions, and Disorders of the Stomach and Alimentary Organs of the Human Body..." [(1821)].
