The outbreak of fever in 1864 was smallpox.

I wonder how that got going as there was an inoculation for Small Pox at that time? [Edward Jenner and his cow pox vaccine etc]


[edit: there was a compulsory smallpox vaccination Act put through Parliament in 1853, Radcliffe must have missed out for some reason]
