1 p.

Royal Observatory Greenwich - GA now remembers that he has heard something of one of the Oxford candidates [see GA to WW, 27 March 1842]: on referring to a letter he finds 'that Donkin has written 4 articles' in Gregory's mathematical journal on the subject of analytical geometry, signed M.N.N (1839, vol. 1 and 1841, vol. II). He has also written a paper on Greek music in 'Taylor & Walton's Dictionary of Antiquities': 'The mathematical papers are doubtless within your reach & you can therefore judge'.
