Sir JOHN PRINGLE, Baronet, P.R.S.

SIR,

The Earl of Sandwich, and the other Commissioners for the Discovery of
Longitude at Sea, etc. who were present at a late meeting at this place,
having expressed to you a desire that the very learned and ingenious
Discourse upon some late Improvements of the Means for preserving the
Health of Mariners, which was delivered by you at the Anniversary Meeting
of the Royal Society, on the 30th of November last might, with Captain
Cook's Paper therein referred to, be printed, and annexed to the Account
of the Astronomical and Philosophical Observations made in the course of
the said Captain Cook's late voyages which account is preparing for the
press, under their direction; and it having been since thought more proper
that the said Discourse and Paper should be annexed to the Second Volume of
the Account of that Voyage, which is shortly to be published, by order of
the Board of Admiralty, I have, therefore, the direction of the Earl of
Sandwich, First Commissioner of that Board, as well as of the Board of
Longitude, to acquaint you therewith, and to desire you will please to
permit your said Discourse, with the Paper therein referred to, to be
printed, and annexed to the Second Volume of the Account of the said Voyage
accordingly.

I am, with great Regard and Esteem,

SIR,

Your most obedient humble Servant,
