In the year 1757, by a list collected from house to house , there were in the parish of Wells about 2400 persons, so that in the year 1758 a sixteenth part of the inhabitants died and of those a hundred out of 163 were taken off by the smallpox. This distemper appeared in 1757 but in so few families that only one child died of it in that year. In the spring of 1758 it began to spread a pace, but did not become general till Michaelmas Quarter. In the beginning of August inoculation was introduced and practised as long as the season would permit with such success that only Four Inoculated Patients died out of One hundred and four.
