Dear Sir

Mr. Du Fretar, a Native of Portugal has the honr [honour] of delivering this to you.

He has studied Medicine here as well as at other seminaries, and is a lover of Natural History.

As hitherto we have been at a loss for the productions of Brazil, I hope by this Gentlemans influence, that many of them can be procured.  His connections are of the better sort. and he has every wish to oblige Sir Jos Banks.
