Scope and content

Letter of donation tipped in to the front of the album. Most portraits have pencil captions, but the accompanying letter does indicate that some of the identifications are guesses. It is not clear whether Jesson owned the album initially, as he appears to have been from a slightly different generation at Trinity.
