Description[I saw yesterday, Sir Joseph Banks, who although in bed with his usual fit of Gout, was in good spirits, and glad to hear of your improved health. He was much pleased that the new Mint was going on. I was at the foundation of the Mint two days ago and they are clearing and preparing for building. I am busy getting the foundations ready for a new 36 horse engine to be erected for a Brewery.]
