Wardrop was associated with Thomas Wakley in the founding of The Lancet in 1823, for which he first wrote savage articles and, later, witty and scurrilous lampoons in his column 'Intercepted Letters'. The letters, under the pseudonym 'Brutus', were thinly disguised as by leading London surgeons, 'accidentally' revealing their nepotism, venality and incompetence. There was enough truth in them to make the parodies sting. He was later rehabilitated with the Royal College of Surgeons of England, becoming a Fellow in 1843.." - See Wikipedia. Full title reads: "Historical sketch of the opinions entertained by medical men respecting the varieties and the secondary occurrence of small-pox ; with observations on the nature and extent of the security afforded by vaccination against attacks of that disease : in a letter to Sir James M'Grigor.
