(Joseph, 1770-1837, Writer on Horticulture, brother of Sir Edward)
Autograph Letter Signed to Dr RAFFLES
(Thoms, 1788-1863, Congregational minister) passing on the Keeper's regret "that he was not able to wait on you during his short stay at Liverpool. The packing the animals he purchased from Chapman occupied more of his time than he expected & thus he was prevented calling on you ... we are most pleased with the result of his mission, especially as he has I hope engaged Mr Munro of the Liverpool Royal Institution to act for us in the matter of animals which may arrive at your port. If you have any power of getting speedy communication made to Mr Munro of any importations likely to suit the Society, you will render us much service by so doing ...", 2 sides 4to., with integral autograph address leaf and seal, Zoological Society, 33 Bruton Street, 1st May
