Mr Lightfoot’s Flora scotica is so near publication, that I would advise any bookseller you chuse to favor to apply to Mr White for any number of copies He chuses for I imagine it will be a popular Book. Mr White has the sale of it so the contract must be made with him. I continue here about 3 weeks; & shall be glad to hear from you.
Pray put the inclosed into the Post.
