Scope and content

Trinity College - Printed letter written by Joseph Romilly with the date for the election of a new University Registrary. Further to RJ possibly being offered the professorship in political economy at King's College [see WW to RJ, 16 March 1832]: 'It appears that some of the managers of the College were dissatisfied with some of Senior's [Nassau Senior] published opinions (I believe about Irish Bishops etc) and this I suppose has led to his resignation. If they offer it you it will be because they think your opinions will be such as they will better like, and because they still wish to have the eclat of a good professor on the subject'.
