CitationMonsieur Joan Gideon Loten, ancien Gouvernour de Ceylon, est un homme distingue par la naissance, par les emploi dont il a ete revetu, par son merite, & ses belles connoissances dans diferentes parties de la Philosophie, qu'il ne peut que faire honneur a toute Societe Literaire qui le reconnoitra pour un de ses Membres.
