Offering him the position of Professor of Higher Mathematics at London University.
Has laid his letter before the Council of London University and hopes he will reconsider his refusal [of professorship].
Would like, if he can lay his hands on it, a paper of John Dalton's on the defect of vision.
Would like JH's view on Thomas Maclear.
