Excerpt:
[Dr. Williams] a pleasant-mannered and much-liked man, taught composition at the College. He was said to be very stimulating, especially by his prettier girl students, who had to keep well away from his roving hands. They saw this as a mildly amusing joke, not with the outraged indignation which would be the case now.

Comment: I suppose this was the real reason why he was never knighted.
