The Stranger Life - and even Stranger Afterlife - of the Reverend William Dodd

William Dodd, popular curate and chaplain to King George III, was sentenced to hang for forgery in 1777. Dodd hoped surgeon and anatomist John Hunter could save him. Hunter’s brother, William, was mentor of anatomist William Hewson, son-in-law of Franklin’s Craven Street landlady. Wendy Moore, author of The Knife Man and Wedlock, reveals what became of the ill fated Reverend Dr Dodd.
