Vaccination and Smallpox Mortality in Early 19th Century
Sir Gilbert Blane reports on Jenner's vaccination as stated in the Meidico Chirurgical Transactions. He notes vaccination's rise in use yet questions its ability to exterminate smallpox, citing mortality ratios over centuries and the impact on rural versus urban diffusion. He argues vaccination reduced overall mortality but offered cautious appraisal of universal eradication.

Extraordinary Births and a Kilrush Murder Report
January reports tell of a sixty one year old peasant near Rome delivering twins who died within hours, followed by a Kilrush murder where Bridget M Tigue killed Catherine M Grath with a blunt instrument while home alone.
