On January as, in the same year, he was stricken with paralysis 'on the right side and died within twenty-four hours. His body was buried in the chancel of the parish church of Berkeley, where there is a memorial window placed by public subscription. In person, Edward Jenner was short and rather heavily built, his expression of face was pleasant with a touch of sadness.
