- catalog abstract "Two handwritten copies of the Latin oration delivered by Governor William Shirley on September 11, 1741 during Harvard's celebration of his installation as Massachusetts Governor. The copyists are unidentified. The first copy, titled "Governor Shirley oration at College," is written on one folio-sized leaf. The second document, written on a folded leaf of four pages, contains a copy of the speech, titled "Oratio excellentissimî D.D. Guilielmi Sherlei, Massachutensis Provinciae gubernatoris, ad Harvardinos habita," and also includes two handwritten texts in Latin dated November 1742 and January 25, 1752. The 1742 half-page text is titled "P.M. ad Exc'm D.D. Sherleum" and includes the subscription, "Annapolis Regalis Novae Scotiae Novembris 1742." It appears to be a ceremonial letter from Paul Mascarene, the Lieutenant-Governor of Nova Scotia, to Governor Shirley. The 1752 text is a congratulatory message apparently between Shirley and Harvard Tutor Henry Flynt, with the salutation "Reverende & Venerande Domine" and the subscription, "Bostonii Nov-Anglorum 25 Januarii 1752 Revendo Flint Harvardini Collegii locio."".
