Robert Hall Notebook circa 1896-1904

http://dlib.nyu.edu/findingaids/html/archives/hall/hall.html

Robert William Hall was a professor of analytical chemistry at New York University from 1888-1904. Hall also served as treasurer of NYU’s Athletic Association, founding member and Chairman of the University’s Summer School Program (1895-1904), Reader of Chemistry for the College Entrance Examination Board (ca. 1902-1903), and as a member of the Chemical Club. His collection consists of seven notebook pages of lecture notes for his course on quantitative chemical analysis. Hall's notes contain no date; however, he likely composed them between 1896 and 1904 (an assumption based on Hall's using the new name for the institution--New York University--as opposed to the University of the City of New York).
