Do you know a Prussian refugee by the name of Sippel 
(Sippel),? a mathematician? Apparently, the chap was tutor to a 
family by the name of Montgomery in Hampstead, was arrested 
before the amnesty” while travelling with this family in Prussia 
and not released until several months later, and is now said to be 
applying for a post as professor of mathematics at the University

presumably in connection with some susiness or other.
