Champion Human Monstrosity Report From Raleigh Beaufair County
A Raleigh dispatch reports a Beaufair County case of a Lunn monstrosity with no state parallel. Jemima Gilfillan of thirteen miles from Washington transports her 12 year old son with severe deformities to a Washing ton physician. The boy lacks arms and has a frontward head while he walks backward with ease. He has only one eye. The tooth extraction required thirteen attempts before success and the tooth length is described as grotesquely extended. The doctor’s work is doubted by the family and neighbors doubt the tale’s truth.
