At the rear of the volume are lists of drugs. Two inserted notes in the volume which may not be contemporary read 'Do not these correspond with the notes in the printed copy of the syllabus?' and 'Notes of Therapeutical Lectures for an entire session'.

Because the volume consists of separate note the date range will almost certainly be wider than the one dated item. Described in the original manuscript catalogue as 'in his own hand'. |
