This book includes catalogues of "The Principals of Nazareth Hall 1785-1910"; "Teachers of Nazareth Hall 1785-1910"; and "The Pupils of Nazareth Hall from 1785 to 1910."

From its Wikipedia page:

“Nazareth Hall (1752–1929) was a school in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. It was built in 1754 in hopes that Count Nikolaus Ludwig Zinzendorf would return from Europe and settle permanently in the community; he never came back to America. It is located in the Nazareth Hall Tract, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.”
