       George Rae was appointed Edinburgh's "plague doctor" in 1645 after the first doctor died. He was promised a huge sum of money as it was expected that he, too, would die before he could collect. Rae tended to the sick and survived. He spent 10 years trying to collect the fee.Learn about him in @TealCartoons and my forthcoming children's book #PlagueBusters!
