Richardson, Richard (1663-1741) 
"Extracts from the literary and scientific 
correspondence of Richard Richardson", ed. by 
Dawson Turner (Yarmouth, 1835)* gives interest¬ 
ing data on Richardson’s collection of plants 
and plant introduction in that period, also a 
good many data on little known botanists and 
gardeners of the time.

The date 1669* given for this work in John¬ 
son, Hist. Eng. Card., p.ll4* is obviously in¬ 
correct. Haller, 2:46, and Lady Cecil, after 
Watt, Bib. Brit., give l699. In the "Extracts 
from the ... correspondence of Richard Richard¬ 
son", I.C., p*275» there is a letter from Phil¬ 
ip Miller (Aug.19,1727), who had just read the 
book and had written the author to ask how he 
might procure a copy. It must have been very 
rare, for Dawson Turner, editor of the corres¬ 
pondence, had been unable to find a copy, and 
save for Miller's allusion could find no men¬ 
tion of it except in Haller, 2:46, where the 
place of publication is given as Leyden.
