A chapter in Gösta Mittag-Leffler, 2010, pp 373-375 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Among the new students that fall was Ivar Fredholm, who had studied both at the Technical College and at Uppsala University. Another was Arthur G. Webster; after graduating from Harvard College and spending a couple of years studying in Europe, he had come from Paris to Stockholm to attend Mittag-Leffler’s lectures. Several months later Gustav Cassel was also among the newly enrolled. There were now more students studying mathematics than any of the other subjects, including botany, geology, zoology, physics, chemistry, or astronomy. Nevertheless, Mittag-Leffler had not given up the idea of seeking a position in the United States; in any case he was still asking for more information about Stanford University, which he thought sounded like a splendid institution of higher learning.
