Abstract

AN election will be held on Thursday, October 30, to two fellowships in connection with Merton College, Oxford. The examination for one of these fellowships will be in mathematics, for the other in physical science. The election to the physical science fellowship will be decided with respect to proficiency in physics, but candidates will have an opportunity of showing a knowledge of chemistry as supplementary to physics. The examination in both these subjects will be partly practical, partly by papers, and will be held in common with Magdalen College. A lectureship in physics, tenable for three years, in Trinity College, of 200l. per annum, will be offered to the Fellow to be elected. The examination for the two fellowships will commence on Tuesday, October 7, at 9 A.M., in the Merton College Hall. Candidates are required to call on the Wrarden on Tuesday, October 7, between 4 and 5 P.M.
