BRISTOL, ETC., IN MAY AND JUNE, 1767. 37 
The names of both John and William Imiys occur in livery lists, 
as of the Stationers' Company, as under : — 
1710-1713. William Innys. 
1722. William Innys, John Innys. 
1776. John Innys, Eedland's Court, near Bristol. 
William Innej^s, bookseller, son of Andrew Inneys, of the city 
of Bristol, gentleman," served the office of Master of the Stationers' 
Company in 1747 and 1748. 
On the left of the window in the vestry at the south-west corner 
of Eedland Chapel is a monument with the following inscription : 
^' To the memory of John Innys, Esq., of Eedland Court, brother to 
Mrs. Cossins, who died 27th October, 1778, aged 83." 
I am much indebted to Mr. William George, of Bristol, and Mr. 
E. M. Borrajo, of the Guildhall Library, London, for the information 
and references they have given me, in the compilation of this note. 
P.S. — A statement in the Preface may lead its Eeaders to su23pose 
that the British Museum contains none of the Banks Correspond- 
ence, which was dispersed at Sotheby's. I therefore may as well 
mention that, in 1887, 1 bought of an Autograph Dealer, for the sum 
of £10 10s. (ten guineas), an immense mass of these letters, about 
one thousand out of which, on botanical subjects, I have since given 
to the British Museum. I still retain the most interesting and 
valuable portion, including over one hundred letters of Dryander, 
who was Librarian to Banks, other most interesting letters, as 
well as minutes on the British Museum, in the handwriting of 
Banks, of which Institution he was a Trustee. These minutes, a 
portion of which are dated May 13, 1801, are most interesting and 
valuable, and consist of thirty-six folio pages in the handwriting 
of Banks. They formed part of the Collection dispersed at Sotheby's, 
and I fancy part of my purchase above mentioned, if not since 
acquired. _ These facts I mention to show at how trifling a cost the 
Nation might have done honour to Banks, as well as for the pur- 
pose of correcting any mistaken conclusion that may be caused 
by the Preface. 
The above sum no doubt included an adequate or ample profit 
on the purchases the Dealer made at the Sale. 
Lot. 6 consisted of a " Journal of an Excursion to Wales, etc., 
began Aug. 13, 1767," 159 pp. 4to. It is throughout in the hand- 
writing of Banks, and of the greatest interest ; yet, though illus- 
trated with original sketches and diagrams, realised only the sum 
of 14s. This Journal I also purchased of the Collector, into whose 
hands the present Journal iDassed, and for a similar sum.
