Letter from A [Andrew] Gray, University College of North Wales, Bangor, to [Joseph] Larmor The selection committee has shortlisted four candidates: G.H. [George Hartley] Bryan, Lawrence Crawford, P.J. Kirkby, and R. [Robert] Lachlan. Gray asks if Larmor knows anything about Crawford, particularly in maintaining discipline as a teacher, which is one of Bryan's apparent weaknesses, but not a serious one. He describes his own contacts with Bryan, thnking that as an Elector for the Chair, there has been some mutual reserve. If Larmor can tell him anything further, or compare the two, he would be grateful. 2 December 1896
