Descripción Both docketed and bearing the Society's stamp. Letter One (12mo, 2 pp, good): Discussing the syllabus of the Royal Society's Spanish examinations. Ends: 'I think that there is need of arriving at some uniform standard of difficulty and of arrangement of the papers set.' Letter Two (4to, 4 pp, good, with top left-hand corner of first leaf torn away, though not affecting text): A long defence of an examination paper set by him against the criticisms of 'Mr Frank J. Allen', who has sat it. 'Mr. Allen, to me it seems as if he does not know his own language, he writes Castilian with two lls. when in English is written with one l only. [.] I decline to answer the P.S. of Mr Allen letter, if I did I might hurt or annoy him. | In conclusion: Mr Allen forgets that he is a candidate and has no right to put remarks to his examiner, who with his twenty years experience ought to know how to conduct an examination of this kind.'.
