Letter from Horace Lamb, The Owens College, Manchester, to [Joseph] Larmor He does not know whether Larmor would think about the Victoria University Examinership which he would not consider three years ago. It would be pleasant if they could have Larmor, although he cannot answer for others. There is some alteration in the conditions: in the future there are to be two coordinate examiners in mathematics, the work would not be great but would be limited in time. He fears it will have little attraction for Larmor now that he has gravitated back to London University, but there are only two visits required and he outlines the work briefly. 12 November 1896
