19 were infectious but only 7 were in an institution...Ergo, 12 were spreading their diseases around the country!!!
One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.

37 people were faggots - only 2 female and it seems the whole family of Messenger of Headington had this occupation

(Okay, I know, Faggots are stick or wood collectors...but it is funny!)
