Three photographs of the Cambridge University Drag club portraying groups on horseback with hounds. An Oct. 1895 photograph depicts the Master F. M. Freake, J. Brocklebank, C. E. Pease, A. D. H. [A. J. H. ?] Saw, Whips J. O. Murphy and H. B. Black, Hon. O. Bridgeman, J. V. Hermon, and L. Williams. There are two photographs from 1897: one of the Master and Whips, all from Trinity: Master the Earl of Ronaldshay [Lawrence Dundas] and Whips J. A. Crocker and H. S. McCorquodale, and another photograph of a large group, not identified individually.

There are two photographs of the Cambridgeshire Harriers, 1897: one photograph of the Master & Whips on horseback, with dogs: J. R. Aspinall (Trin: Hall), Whip; J. V. Hermon (Trin: Hall), Master, B. Hardy (Trin: Hall), Whip; and one photograph of the members on horseback with dogs, with three men and three women standing, not identified individually.

The other two photographs are of The Angels, Lent 1896, a group photograph of Lawrence Williams with W. H. Oakeley, F. E. C. Pilkington, O. J. Kuhn, Hon. W. James, all of Trinity, and E. H. Johnston, T. Simpson, G. O. G. Bramson, and C.R. Holmes of Trinity Hall. Each man is in a dinner jacket with a sash with an angel on the front. The second photograph is of a student room, probably belonging to Lawrence Williams, who lived at 27 Trinity Street while a student.

The photographs are accompanied by two labels from the versos of the frames of two [unidentified] photographs addressed to L. Williams from Messrs. Stearn, Photographers and Frame Makers, 72, Bridge Street, Cambridge.

All photographs are by Stearn or Stearn Bros., Cambridge.

An album containing 86 menus, many of them for private dinners given by Lawrence Williams and his circle of friends at Cambridge. The menus are mounted, and the pages for the nearly 60 private dinners for 1895-1896 carry handwritten notes recording the attendees and the host. Many of the menus were printed by Redin & Co., Cambridge, and feature a variety of illustrations, with both the courses and Williams's name printed. Williams hosted some of these dinners; other frequent hosts include E. Harold Johnston, the Hon. Wilfred James, Alfred F. Sotheby, G. O. G. Bramson, H. M. Dent, O. J. Kuhn, Herbert W. Oakeley, and Tom Simpson. There are five menus for a club, the 'Angels' (motto: 'Nunc est bibendum'), whose members are listed on the inaugural dinner menu of 27 Feb. 1896: Bramson, James, Johnston, Kuhn, Simpson, Williams, C. R. Holmes and F. E. C. Pilkington. There are also two Trinity College dinner menus and two menus for the Cambridge Drag and Beagle Hunts. Several 21st birthday dinner menus are mounted on pages signed by those present.

The private menus for 1897 and after tend to lack lists of attendees, and are intermixed with menus for University events (the Oxford v Cambridge Skating Match, the Drag & Beagle Hunt Dinner), the Ghezirah Palace in Cairo, dinners for the Officers of the 3rd Battalion D.C. Light Infantry and for the Anglesey Summer Assizes. At the back of the album are two programmes for A.D.C. Smoking Concerts in 1895. There are two invitations, including one from the Officers of the Royal Welch Fusiliers to the Officers of the 3rd Battalion in May 1898. Laid in loose are two slips detailing fines for minor infractions at Trinity, four drawings of 'Life in the Trenches' by [V. L. Pinner?], a note in Williams's hand recording dinners and attendees for Oct.-Nov. 1896, and a letter from A. Hartmann of Webb's Restaurant, 3 & 4 Market Street, Cambridge, 4 Feb. 1897 to Williams enclosing 2 menus for his approval [menus not with letter].
