ANALYSIS OF CORRESPONDENCE.
We shall now examine seriatim the list of letters contained
in Document 304, and specify those that have been preserved
through one of the above agencies.
"No. 1. Some papers that arrived from London in the
month of September, which are probably the last written
by Assessor Swedenborg’s own hand."
Document 302 was probably one of these papers.
"No. 2. First draughts and memorials on political subjects."
These have been bound up, and constitute the greater part of Codex 56,
entitled Riksdagsskrifter. They are contained in Section VI of the
present work.
"No. 3. Correspondence and controversial writings with
Nordencrantz, the late Councillor of Commerce, and
President von Elreich."
Some of these letters have been preserved in Codex 56 ; but by far
the greater part Bergius copied, and embodied in his collection. All
these letters are contained in Section VI of the work.
"No. 4. Letters from Bishop Doctor Jesper Swedenborg."
Some of the Bishop’s letters to his sons Emanuel and Jesper have
been preserved through the instrumentality of Bergius. They con
stitute Documents 113, 115, and 131.
"Nos. 5 to 9. Letters from Lewis and John Hart, printers,
London ; from P. Roger, Doctor of Divinity, and Madame
Johanna Corleva ; from Hekel, bookseller, Dresden, and
from Jürgen Schneider, Hamburg."
These letters have entirely disappeared.
"No. 10. Letters from Joachim Wretman 174 in Amsterdam."
Seven of these letters were bought by the editor of these Documents
during his stay in Sweden in 1770, and deposited by him in the
archives of the Swedenborg Society. They constitute Documents 210
to 214, 219, and 235 of the present collection.
"Nos. 11 and 12. Letters from Margareta Ahlström in
London, and Zacharias Strömberg in Amsterdam."
These letters have disappeared.
"No. 13. Some of Swedenborg’s own letters and answers
to letters in first draughts."
The first draughts of some of Swedenborg’s letters to Dr. Beyer, which
were bound up in Codex 52, were lately restored to the Academy.
