Christ's College - Cartmell agrees with Whewell that the Vice-Chancellor and the Master of Pembroke College will sign the report of the Syndicate appointed to revise the Statutes of the University: the protest Whewell has drawn up ought to be signed by all those who dissent from the report. Cartmell wishes the syndicate would break up for the summer since they are so flushed with victory they have lost 'the power of considering any point with calmness, or except with the hope of curtailing or destroying some constituted authority'. Accompanied by 11 pages of notes about an unidentified publication.

Written from Christ's College Lodge.

Christ's College Lodge - JC has read WW's recommendations regarding the statute respecting the Professors, and as far as he can see, WW has met every point that has been suggested. JC gives suggestions regarding the power of the electors: 1. 'Would it be well to reserve this power [to make changes to the statute] to the electors in the statute? 2. 'Would it also be desirable to impose upon the electors a periodical visitational duty'. 3. 'Would it be right expressly to recognise the power of any one of the electors to hold these Professorships?' 4. 'Might the Vice-Chancellor be asked to print (privately) the statute as it is suggested to be drawn, and to send it round to the electors?'
