This list consisted of works TJ requested from Reibelt that the bookseller did not have in stock. In his letter of 3 May, Reibelt reported that he would be ordering from Europe the last work on the list, later volumes of Histoire naturelle des oiseaux by the Comte de Buffon. See also Reibelt to TJ, 28 Dec. 1804, 10, 21, and 25 Jan., 2, 17, and 19 Feb. 1805.
