91 Adelaide Road - WW's information confirms ADM's recollection: Maitland was at Taunton when WW took his degree in 1816; tells the story of an undergraduate who was not found in the chapel lists or by tutors, but was instead remembered by the butler: 'An undergraduate may neither pray nor learn but he is sure to eat.' After the University College opened and courses were underway, a dinner was proposed and opposed by [Robert Edmond] Grant, who said he had never heard of such a thing as eating at a university.
