Letter from Edmund T [Taylor] Whittaker, Dunsink Observatory, Castknock, to Sir Joseph [Larmor] Whittaker intends to become a candidate for the Chair of Mathematics in Edinburgh, despite being happy in his current post. The reasons are partly financial, but he is now ready 'to plunge again into teaching & organising work'. He asks for Larmor's support with the electors. 9 November 1911
