Scope and content
Oriel College - Gladstone's visit to Oxford coincided with the Chapter's meeting to discuss the Candidates Testimonials, and 'I was obliged to stay and receive him'. EH forwarded WW's letter to a member of the Chapter and he is sure it will be fully attended to: 'There must have been , I suppose, many Candidates, for six of them applied to me'. Thanks WW for a copy of his letter to Mansel [Letter to the Author of Prolegomena Logica, 1852]. He was also grateful to WW 'for several ideas new to me who have had no leisure for many years for such pursuits'. EH observes a growing disposition towards exemption for colleges to pay Poor Rates.
