Scrap of paper, 9 x 9cm, remnants of laying down on reverse, clear text, as follows: I should be glad to have the Statuta Aularia if you have them to hand [short line though this paragraph] | [Line crossed out - indecipherable] | I shd be glad to know of any new German works or ['Jewish' prob.]. or any improved editions of the old ones. Note: Statuta Aularia: statutes made by the University for the government of the Halls [presumably as opposed to 'Colleges']. The Oxford University Act 1854 and the university statute De aulis privatis (On private Halls) of 1855, allowed any Master of Arts aged at least 28 years to open a private hall after obtaining a licence to do so.[3] The longest lived of the thirteen private halls was Charsley's Hall (1862–1891) [Wikipedia].
