In a letter of Jno. Ray's to Mr. Aubrey is the following:
"I am glad that Mr. Bobart hath been so diligent in observing and making a collection of insects."
Is there any collection extant?
"He may give me much assistance in my intended Synopsis of our English Animals, and contribute much to the perfecting of it."
Did he do so?
Is the print of old Jacob Bobart, by W. Richardson, valuable?
Where can I pick up a print of him by Loggan del., Burghers sculp.? There is a portrait of Jacob Bobart the younger in Oxford Almanack for 1719; can I procure it?
H. T. Bobart.
