"The tryal of Mr. Daniel Sutton, for the high crime of preserving the lives of His Majesty's liege subjects, by means of inoculation" by Daniel Sutton, unveils the tumultuous legal battle of a man accused of a crime for saving lives. Set in a time of blossoming scientific understanding mixed with societal fear, the story recounts the trial of Daniel Sutton, a man on trial for inoculating people, which allegedly preserved them from illness. The narrative unfolds in a courtroom as the prosecution claims that Sutton's methods were mysterious and foreign to medical professionals. The defense retaliates by sharing stories and experiences of Sutton's successes, emphasizing how not a single patient died from the procedure. The moral dilemma of accusing someone of a good deed is discussed, along with the legitimacy of inoculation and accountability. Eventually, Sutton is declared not guilty, showing the complexities of medical ethics, public health, and the law.
