Notes taken by an unknown student from lectures given by James Gregory on medicine

A note at the start of the volume indicates that it had been wrongly attributed to Sir W Jenner in the University College Library. Close analysis of the text by Professor T R Elliott of University College confirms that James Gregory gave the lectures. He dated the volume as 1805-10, although the paper has what may be a date of 1819. There is also correspondence with the librarian of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh who was able to confirm that the text is very similar to that of Christison's notes of Gregory's lectures (see CHR/1/1-4). The volume has the name J Lowdell, 1834 pasted to the inside cover, but the date is too late for him to have taken the notes. There is a subject index in a different hand after the notes. At the rear there are also additional articles on dropsy, diseases of the conjunctiva and diseases of the liver dated 1841 and in a different hand again.
