'D. Pettiward. Trinity. Nov. 21 1786' on first page; 'D Pettiward' has been gone over in ink. 'Vince' is also written out several times in ink, as well as 'Young' and 'Mary' [or 'many'], and several squiggles of the pen.

The notes begin in a philosophical vein: 'Idea is the object of thinking. Whence has the mind all the materials of reason & knowledge from experience.' However, most of the notes are on mathematical topics: 'Vulgar Fractions', 'Reductions', 'Multiplications' and so on, including discussion of surds and fluxions. Many pages are crossed through.
