http://id.lib.harvard.edu/ead/hua05011/catalog

Nathan Prince (1698-1748), who was educated at Harvard College and employed as one of its Tutors for almost twenty years, was believed by many to be the most significant scholar of mathematics and natural philosophy in the American colonies of his time. This collection contains notebooks on mathematics and other subjects Prince created while a Harvard undergraduate, as well as a notebook on a wide range of topics which he appears to have used in teaching. Also in the collection is a notebook in which Prince made entries about various scholars' and church fathers' accounts of the Resurrection.
