Abstract

Partial copy of the German text of George de Benneville's Medicina Pennsylvania, originally written circa 1770 in the Philadelphia region, as well as its materia medica table in Latin, German, and English (p. 49-68). A table of contents at the beginning of the volume (p. i-xxii, lacking at least one leaf at the beginning) has entries referring to pages 2-268. There is a short section on treatments for mothers and children (Mütter und Kinder, p. 159). A new alphabetical series, possibly copied from another source, begins with the heading Medico-physicum, Materia medica (p. 269), followed by another extensive table (p. [285-295]) and 99 numbered preparations in a different hand (p. [297-345]).
