No - this is not written in Hahnemann's handwriting but in "Kanzleischrift". By someone unknown.

Schmidt says about it:

The portions written in Kanzleischrift again not rarely contain additional inserts or changes in Hahnemann's own handwriting. Obviously they are dictations, which were revised by H. himself and therefore - at least in those cases - can be considered authentic. Portions in this script that do not contain additions by Hahnemann for the most part are merely new versions of text also existent in Hahnemann's handwriting or purely corrections of syntactic matters. The only exception which is relevant as to the content is that of the footnote to aphor 284, which is in "Kanzleischrift" and states that
"psora could also be inheritable", which, however, is in concordance with a remark in Hahnemann's own handwriting (footnote to aphor 78)

(Schmidt ...., 1999 edition, page XVII)

As to the rest - see my other post.

Regards

Luise
