  <dc:title>Draft letter from Sir Joseph Banks, Soho Square, to William Marsden</dc:title>
  <dc:description>On a Rhinoceros from Sumatra that Banks asks Marsden to take delivery from Captain Edward Manning.  Banks is concerned about the animal's welfare ("I fear the approaching winter will in all likelihood destroy it unless a proper place can be provided in which it may be warmly lodged") and suggests lodging it at "Exeter 'Change" (almost certainly Exeter Exchange, just off the Strand).</dc:description>
