Jenner thanks Murray for Dr. Smith's papers, which comment on the vaccine crust or seal. He notes that Smith will promote the vaccine's use around Baltimore. Jenner adds that he wants a copy of Cooper's work on vaccination from the man himself, and would be glad to pay for it. He mentions Burnett's "horrible" advertisement, along with the quarantining of a ship. In a postscript he adds that Mr. Evans health complaints are alarming and asks what has become of an annual report.
