A REMARKABLE CASE OF GLASS EAT
ING. The case of MI. John White, who
has been in Augusta county a couple of
years, and has caused so much astonisll-
ment by his ability to eat glass, has attract
ed the attention of the medical profession,
and the Medical and Surgical Reporter
contains the following communication
from Dr.. Reese, Of Staunton, ell the
subject
ED MED. AND SURG. REPORTER -
There was in my Office this morning a
case which may be Of some interest to the
profession.
MI W., from Ireland, q healthy, stout
looking man; weight, 147 pounds; age,
twenty-four years; height, feet inches;
occupation for a long time, seaman, but
now processes to be an engineer; came to
this country two years and six months ago;
was educated, he says, i'll France and Eng
land; has rather a pleasant face, and seems
disposed to make himself agreeable. by
request he came i'll to exhibit to me that
he could eat glass with lmpunlty. tie eX-
pressed preference for watch crystals, us
they were more easily chewed, but as there
were none convenient, he would take the
common WindoW-pane glass. L went out
and secured a piece, about one-third OF
broken pane, and brought i'll several friends
to witness the sight. He took the glass
and deliberately bit out piece about the
size of silver half dollar, and chewed it
up with as much gusto as if it had been
piece Of bread, swallowed it, taking after
wards a swallow of water and Dread, he
said, to get the particles out Of his teeth.
He would have eaten the whole piece if |
had Tod nn hoC frpunnDt1u nafp1a
tumbers for drink Of Whisk9y. He said
he would eat any kind of glass except the
colored bottle glass which had poison in
it. He WAS first induced to try the expert
ment, about three years ago, at Cape Good
Hope, by surgeon in the British Navy
who bet he could eat all the glasses rs III
number,) at q dinner party, which he did,
and he saw no reason why he could not do
as much. so he tried it by eating only three.
Since that time he has eaten glass for the
amusement Of others, over a thousand
times, with no dIsagreeable effect The
only difference he sees is, it gives him an
appetite.
Is there any solution to this problem,
why it does not kill the man OF produce
some serious disorder Of the system, when
we have been taught the dangerous conse-
quences of swallowing glass He does
not seem to chew it up very finely. and
says he only wants two bites on a watch
crystal before swallowing it. 1t is certaiG-
ly mystery to me, and would like to hear
from some of youl readers on the subject.
Respectfully,
b. 2. REESE.
Stanton, august 14tt, 1874.
The experimentor, though he prefers
thin glass can eat thick, having eaten sey-
eral tumblers in Staunton for the amuse-
mnnt of his friends
