Letter from Emily Davies to [Robert] Potts, 1865-02-01
Item
Reference Code: GBR/0271/GCPP Davies 8/111/4
Scope and Contents
Hopes the pamphlet will dissipate any impression of strongmindedness; the girls examined were meek, gentle and entirely feminine. A summer examination in Cambridge would not be useful, but an application has been sent to Oxford for the extension of their examination to girls, which is held in June, and there is a majority in favour.
