Talk by Kirsty Chilton. In March 1718, an early body
snatching scandal hit the parish of St Saviour's, today
called Southwark Cathedral. Who were these resurrection men
and the surgeons who paid them, what was the attitude of the
law, and how did the ordinary person try to save their loved
one from the anatomist's table?
