[Histonet] abbreviation of "with" OT

[Jackie M O'Connor]

Thanks for the clarification - I took Latin for 4 years, in the late 60's. 
  I guess I forgot a couple of words.   Still, sine underwear doesn't have 
the same impact as sans underwear.

"Sans" is the French derivative from the Latin "sine" (without).

I have always used that "c" designation but I don't know where I picked
it up. In MS word it is found in "insert" under "symbols".

I have a great curiosity waiting to be relieved.
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?
