Description

A school exercise book from approximately 1799 that mostly focuses on mathematics. The inside cover says: "[...] this book in the year of our Lord 1799" and "Henrietta Wesley" written on it. The name is oversize and is in a different colour than the rest of the book. The back cover says: "John D. Servos" in the same script and colour as the rest of the book.

Servos was a Captain of the 1st Regiment of the Lincoln Militia in Niagara during the War of 1812. This document provides insight into what students were learning at the turn of the century.
