Notes taken on law lectures at the University of Virginia, [manuscript], 1833-1862.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/647966164

The notes on law lectures were taken between April 16, 1833 and May 21, 1833, and are written chiefly on the rectos and were probably taken in the class of [John A. G. Davis?] by [Cabell Tavenner?]. The versos were subsequently used as a drawing book, diary and letterbook with scattered entries dated between 1857 and 1862. Several of the letters are signed "Jennette A. Tavenner, Weston, Lewis County, Va." Of interest are a list of books read during 1861 including Emma Willard's "Abridged history of the United States" and Jane Porter's "Scottish chiefs." There are frequent references to her mother's school teaching.
