Frank Nicholls, Compendium anatomico-oeconomicum ... in usum Academiae Oxoniensis constructum (London, 1736). A tabular summary of anatomy, physiology, morbid anatomy, pharmacology and midwifery, interleaved and annotated, mainly Latin, by an unidentified student. Some of the notes are based on an 'editio novissima' of Nicholls' work published in 1738; others are followed by the initials 'FN' and possibly derive from lectures by Nicholls.
