* Jenner (Edward, 1749-1823). English physician and scientist, pioneer of smallpox vaccination. A George III silver snuff box by IB, Birmingham 1795, the rectangular box with engine-turned decoration and vacant cartouche, the hinged lid enclosing gilded interior, the inner lid contemporarily engraved ‘Edward Jenner to C. Fred Hausserman 1822’, 28 mm high x 78 mm wide x 41 mm deep, approximately 79gQTY: (1)NOTE:An unusual Jenner association item, though one very similar, engraved for a Thomas Croome, was sold in these rooms on 20 October 2020, lot 158.Jenner was an active Freemason, serving in 1812 as Master of the Royal Lodge of Faith and Friendship, No. 270, based in Berkeley, Gloucestershire. Christian Frederick Hausserman, Esquire, from Wirtemberg, is listed in the records as a member too, joining on 6 April 1818. A letter from Jenner to C. F. Hausserman, Esq, Ebley near Stroud, [no date], is published in Letters of Edward Jenner and Other Documents concerning the History of Vaccination (Johns Hopkins University, 1983). The editor, Genevieve Miller, says that 'Although Hausserman's identity has not been discovered, this letter leads one to speculate that he was a local surgeon' (p. 113).'My dear Sir,After so long an acquaintance you must have discover'd that I am a very impatient sort of a Gentleman. You will not be surpris'd therefore at my soliciting you to furnish me as speedily as you can, with the Ebley Case of Tic Doulereaux [trigeminal neuralgia]. I hope this may find you at home & that you will take up a bit of paper & give me a reply with as much speed as you can. Even as far as it went, until the unfortunate interference of Dr. D-- was quite enough to convince me of the power of the Pustule in regulating some of those movements of the Brain which are deranged & assume a wrong action. [This idea was developed in Jenner's pamphlet, A Letter to Charles Henry Parry … on the Influence of Artificial Eruptions (London, 1822).]I never hear anything of Mr. Cross, which is vexatious. A Pamphlet is order'd for him from Town, and if you see Mr. Jones, tell him I shall send him one the first opportunity. Great news today from Ebley House - It [tatar emetic applied exterior] seems to have had a good effect on poor Edward, as he reports himself better. I hope he will steadily persevere in a plan of diet that will prove duly nutritious without heating the Brain. With best wishes Yours my dear Sir very truly, Edw. Jenner'One of the celebrations taking place on the bicentenary of Edward Jenner's death, 26 January 2023, will be the unveiling of a new blue plaque in his honour at The Old School, Park Lane, Cirencester. This was formerly the site of Cirencester Grammar School, where Edward Jenner, (and Caleb Hillier Parry), was a pupil, c. 1757-1764. The public unveiling will take place at 12 noon.
