| Description | Headed 'An alphabetical list of the Royal Society', with the Royal Patron appearing as: 'His Sacred Majesty King George II. Patron', together with 'His Royal Highness the Prince', 'His Royal Highness Francis Duke of Lorrain' and 'His most Serene Highness William Prince of Orange'. The list lacks the bottom half, so that the columns for the alphabetical record of all Fellows and 'Persons of Other Nations' [Foreign Members] remains incomplete and the notes on Council elections are not present. The left hand column containing 'The Present Council', headed by the President. Sir Hans Sloane, has survived.
