William Archibald Spooner (1844-1930), Warden of New College, Oxford, who gave his name to the 'spoonerism':
Eponym of the 'Spoonerism': William Archibald Spooner Warden of New College Oxford. Autograph Letter Signed to 'Dear old Lee'
'New College / Dec 1922' on letterhead of New College Oxford. See his entry in the Oxford DNB. 2pp 12mo. In good condition lightly aged. Folded for postage. Addressed to 'Dear old Lee' and signed 'W A Spooner -'. He explains that he and his colleagues thought Lee's 'testimonials & references very good as you may gather from our having put you on our list of selected candidates but you did not quite reach the very highest place in our judgment'. Consequently Lee has not been placed 'with the two between whom we recommend that the final choice of the College should be made.' He concludes: 'I am all the more sorry for your inevitable disappointment as I am informed that you have been disappointed in an engagement which you had every right to expect that you would receive'. In a postscript he adds that they were 'much impressed by old John Oliverson's letter'. 'New College / Dec 1922', on letterhead of New College, Oxford. unknown

He continues regarding lodgings: 'If we can hear of any we can recommend notice of they will be sent to the Porter's Lodge and you should make enquiries there'. 5 November 1913. On letterhead of New College, Oxford. unknown
