Scope and content
16 Newton Road, Cambridge.—King’s College, Cambridge, have paid £200 for an incomplete set of Scrutiny. Expresses indignation at the manner in which they approached Frank for permission to photograph what was missing. Smith’s best chance of selling his set is to an American university. Frank has not done anything about Smith’s manuscript, because he has been marking Tripos papers all day, as well as attending to college duties, writing reports and testimonials, and reading the ‘original contributions’ of Tripos candidates; and there are ‘endless’ examiners’ meetings to come. There are twice as many candidates to be marked in the same time as the old days, by the same number of examiners. Discusses the difficulties of finding a new house. They hope to see Smith this summer, but have not yet thought about going away for a holiday, as she is anxious to move before the autumn.
