Personal diary of former Fellow of Christ's College Cambridge, Charles Lesingham Smith. Lesingham Smith bequeathed his library to the College in 1878.It included about a thousand mathematical books, and a number of manuscripts. However, this diary was a later addition. In the early 1930s, it turned up in a second-hand bookshop in Australia and was purchased for the price of seven pence halfpenny.
