Account of a Horned Man.
Fr a n cis Tr.ouv il r.jii, was
a man of a middle stature, a full
, '
j body, bald, except in the hinder
p at cf the head, which liad a few
hail j upon it; his temper was
moiosc, and his demeanor alto
gether rustic ; he was born in a
j little village c hied Mezieres, and
loud up in the woods amongst
j the charcoal men. About the
! seventh year of his ag> lie began
i to have a swelling in his forehead,
|so that about the seventeenth
; year of his age lie had a horn there
as big as a man’s finger end,
, which afterwards did admit of
; that grovdi and increase that
| when he came to he thirtv-live
i years old, this Imrn had both the
bigness and le.-wnblance of a
| nun’s horn. ]: gew upon the
[ midst of his forehead, and then
i bended backward as far as the co
ronal s uture, v here the oilier e id
of it did sometimes so stick in
the shin, that to avoid much pain
lie was constrained to cut off
I route part of the end of it: whe
ther this horn had its root in the
' rltin or forehead, I know not; bur
| probably King of that weight and
j bigness, it grew from the scull
| itself; nor am I certain whether
j tliis man had any oi those teeth
1 called grinders. For lu o months
i together the man was exposed as
| a show in Paris, where (says Ur
! whins,) in the year 1798, !, in
compare* \t ith Dr. Jacobus Faes
| chins, the public professor at
! Bald, and Mr. Joannes Keken
stenius, did see and handle this
j horn. From Paris he was car
| ried to (h leans, where, (as lam
j informed) lie died soon after.
