We assume familiarity with the notation and contents of Conway [2] and Edge [3]. That the Mathieu group is a subgroup of the simple group PSU (6, 22) appears to have been first recognized by Conway and is consequent upon his identification of ·222 with PSU (6, 22). Although we know of no proof of this identification in the literature, several proofs exist in the folklore of the subject: for example, N. Patterson showed one of the authors a proof that depends on ·222 being a Fischer group, hence on consideration of order, isomorphic to PSU (6, 22). There is another proof which relies on McLaughlin's work on rank three groups.
