The Times, 8 December 1860
In a Convocation held in the Sheldonian Theatre at 2 o'clock an election was held of a Boden Sanskrit Professor, to replace the late Mr H. H. Wilson. There were two candidates, Mr. Monier Williams, M.A., of University College, late Professor of Sanskrit at Haileybury, and Mr. Max Müller, M.A., of Christ Church and All Souls' Colleges, Taylorian Professor of Modern European Languages in the University of Oxford. Mr Williams took the lead from the first, and, as hour after hour went by, continually increased his majority. The poll was closed at about half-past 7, and the Senior Proctor declared Mr. Williams duly elected to the office. We understand that the numbers at the close were:Samfuri:IndentFor Mr. Williams 833Samfuri:IndentFor Professor Müller 610Samfuri:IndentMajority 223.[43]

The last days have been full of disturbance. You will have seen by the papers that I did not get the Sanskrit Professorship. The opposite party made it a political and religious question, and nothing could be done against them. All the best people voted for me, the Professors almost unanimously, but the vulgus profanum made the majority. I was sorry, for I would gladly have devoted all my time to Sanskrit, and the income was higher; but we shall manage.[49]

Williams ya yi aiki a matsayin farfesa na Boden har zuwa mutuwarsa a 1899, ko da yake ya yi ritaya daga koyarwa (yayin da yake rike da lakabi) a 1887 saboda lafiyarsa.
