teen had alfo a Swelling of the (ame Kind in her 
Leg, but it lay fomething deepeti and gave her a great 
deal of Pain for Three or Four Days 5 afterwards it 
difcharged a great quantity of Matter, and was heal’d 
without any farther Trouble. 
All the reft, excepting chefe I have mentioned, got 
very well thro’ the Diftemper without any manner of 
Trouble, or Hazard, or any ill Confequence after- 
ward. Whether thofe (light Indifpofitions, which Tome 
have been fubjeeft to afterward, were owing to the In- 
fition, I have not been able to judge; but I prefume 
what they have endured in the Courfe of the Dif- 
temper, and what has followed after, is not to be 
put in the Ballance with what is undergone in the 
common way, by thofe who are thought to come off 
very well j and if this Method were more generally 
pradfifed, *tis probable forae means wou’d be found 
out, to prevent even chefe fubfequent diforders, which 
are no more frequent, nor near fo bad, as thofe 
which follow the natural Sort. 
In two Inftances the Inoculation had no eftedb, the 
Reafon of which, in one, * was becaufe the Child had 
the Small Pox before, as the Parents did believe ; but the 
Diftemper had been fo favourable, as to leave it doubt- 
ful. t In the other, the Matter was taken, when the 
Puftules were wither’d, and almoft gone, and that lit- 
tle moifture which they contain’d, I fuppofe, had (oft 
its Virtue; the Boy to whom it was made ufe of, 
was no way affeded ; the Places of Incifion did not 
at all inflame, or fw^ell as ufual, nor did any Puftules 
appear ; but about a Month after, he was feized with
