I would proudly have negotiated in Ms Atkins behalf; not so much the lawyer as the historian-precedence sets the rates IMHO!

"We do not know if James or his father were paid for the experiment, but later in life Jenner definitely rewarded his first test subject. When James Phipps was married with children, Jenner gave him a free lease on a house. Phipps was grateful to Jenner, and attended the physician's funeral on 3 February 1823. However, if the experiment had gone wrong, Jenner would probably have kept quiet about it, and James Phipps would have been forgotten, like many other victims of medical experimentation." It's good when guinea pigs have a name!
