There is an opening for a Lay fellowship. Is JH interested? News of J. W. Whittaker's appointment.
JH has been appointed a Lay-fellow. It entails no duties. The present body regards it as an honor to retain JH's name.
Though he could qualify, he would rather not try for the fellowship as he does not require it so much as some other persons may.
Received MB's notice that JH was appointed fellow of Saint John's College. Will visit Cambridge if William Herschel's health permits.
