[Histonet] abbreviation of "with" OT

[Rene J Buesa]

curious Louise:
  "c" with a little horizontal line above is abbreviation for "cum" = with.
  Also it is used a small "s" with the same little bar abore as abbreviation of "sine" = without.

Ever since I started working in the lab... in those days the pathologist
dictated the gross report at cut up and the tech wrote it down...we used the
abbreviation of "with" as a "c" with a little horizontal bar above it. Does
anyone else use this and if so what is its history?
