Huxham includes regular monthly notes on medical matters, commencing in January [p.3]: 'Plures inennte mense fuero asthmate corrupti, noculles novi Paroxysmos graviores...Tusses fuere epidemicae toto mense.' [I have been afflicted with asthma several times during the past month, and some with more serious paroxysms...The cough was epidemic all month]. Also, there are notes on a portable Hauksbee baroscope [p.9] and on on meteorological matters, including aurora [p.14].
