Scrapbook recording the life of a Trinity College student from 1899 to 1902, with programmes, menus, dance cards, college notices, club and society notices and memorabilia and other printed ephemera, as well as letters and photographs. Many items carry captions, though some people are identified only by their initials and many items are pasted down so that only their front cover is visible.

There is material relating to the Boat Club, Granta, the Pitt Club, the Trinity Foot Beagles, and the A.D.C., the Cambridge Old Haileyburian Club, and one or two items from the Nihilists Club, the Trinity Lawn Tennis Club, The Trinity Historical Society, and the Trinity Association Football club. There is also material from his summer holidays, with cards and notices from Newmarket, the Micklegate Ward Conservative Association and Club Cricket Match in August 1901, the Grasmere & Lake District Annual Athletic Sports Letters include those from Chancellor A. W. Ward regarding the selection of a play for the A.D.C. ("The Dean's Dilemma" by C. Tennyson and R. H. Malden), and two letters from R. C. Lehmann, Barry Pain, and Owen Seaman relating to Jones' work on Granta, and R. St. John Parry about the gift of a letter from Sir W. Gilbert to Trinity College Library (now catalogued as Add. MS c. 1/147). Menus include those for formal events and dances, as well as private dinners in Cambridge and at Trinity, and other diners are often recorded, A. A. Milne appearing as a fellow diner twice. Names of those friends who appear often in the scrapbook are: J. S. Agnew, J. W. Cropper, K. V. Elphinstone, J. G. Gordon, V. P. Powell, G. B. Wainwright, E. Wyatt-Davies, and J. R. Wharton.
