I NO. ; 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 !
