Most beginners no doubt believe that Bayes' Theorem was proved by
Thomas Bayes.  In fact his most famous paper considered the following
problem, ``\textit{Given} the number of times in which an unknown event
has happened and failed: \textit{Required} the chance that the
probability of its happening in a single trial lies somewhere between any
two degrees of probability that can be named.''  He assumes \textit{a
priori} that all values of the unknown probability $\theta$ are equally
likely and concludes (in modern notation) that, conditional on the 
observation of $X=p$ successes in $n$ trials,
\[ \Pr(b<\theta
