Description

Julian Niemcewicz wrote from Philadelphia, PA to Susan Kean, addressed to Elizabethtown, NJ. In the letter he informed Susan on the individuals he had crossed paths with and elaborated on his living situation while staying in the city. He anticipated that he would leave Philadelphia by July and told Susan he would "make some stay at home, and you know my home is Elizabethtown." Additionally, at the end of the letter Julian had asked Susan to write her friends in New York City to see if they could purchase various Carl Linnaeus titles such as, Species Plantarum, Genera Plantarum and Philosophia Botanica.
