    States that William Harvey wishes to know when a statue of Edward Jenner is to be erected, given that another statue of Arthur Wellesley (1st Duke of Wellington) has been erected. Thinks Jenner has saved 'millions of faces' and that when women 'set up bronze to the soldier' they should not 'forget the Vaccinator'.
