Title | Samuel Goodenough, Berners Street, [London], to Sir James Edward Smith |
Description | Thanks for Smith's reply to [James Henry] Monk [(1784-1856), Cambridge regius professor of Greek] and Smith's critical reviewer in the "Quarterly Review" although he is now certain it was written by an Oxford man, which would exculpate [George] D'Oyly [?]. Glad Smith's Cambridge pamphlet is written with "such good temper" but thinks Smith exposes himself to attack by minutely going into the particulars of his religion [campaign for botany professorship]. |
