The case is examined here (in chapter 3) as part of the tangled set of relationships between religion and insanity in this period: in particular, between those who appeared to suffer from this especially problematic admixture, and the doctors, divines, and laymen who, alternately, ministered to and vilified them.

...Doctoring Trade, Andrew Scull, 1994 AD, p 3) The modern slur of "Bedlam" was created at the "Bedlam mad house" under the direction of John Monro between 1752-1791 AD. "The almost four decades during which Monro presided as physician at the Bethlem and Bridewell Hospitals, 1752-91, constituted a momentous period in Bethlem's history. It was in the eighteenth century that Bethlem as "Bedlam" truly assumed its archetypal place as a by-word for all things mad and chaotic. Not only did Bedlam become a medium for satirizing the follies of the nation, but it was also in the same period that Bethlem really began to generate its own history of scandal and vilification. As part and parcel of such developments, the Monros themselves would be depicted as the quintessential mad-doctors by famous poets and playwrights, as well as the not so famous Grub-Street scribblers, cartoonists, and pamphleteers."
