Dr Fothergill died Dec 1780

She took the liberty of consulting Dr. Solander on the propriety of sending them not being a sufficient Judge herselfe how far they might be worth her frd [friend] J Banks's notice; along with them she sends a peice of fearn Tree, which she understands was his gift to her dear late Brother Dr Fothergill, and which she wishes to deposit again in his much esteem'd friends hands.
