John Nicol continued to advertise in The Scotsman, adverts appearing on 9, 12, 18, 22, 26, 30, 31 Mar + 2, 6 Apr. 1859.

Was this the same John Nicol as gave many Wednesday lectures to  EPS and who gave an account to the British Journal of Photography of his Early Recollections of photography in Edinburgh?
