Her first appearance in New York, so far as
the writer Of this article knows, was in 1870,
when. as DR.. Ferdinand Seeger says, she ap-
peared at the Hahnemann hospital, where
she claimed to be suffering from hemor-
rhage. It was found that she only had q
bleeding tooth, and she was discharged,
though not till she had set fire to mattress,
knitted one or two Of the doctors and per-
formed sundry other curious feats.
Among tho medical students she met at thu.

named Massant She was for time an in
mate Of an insane asylum, and afterward
married Massant.

those of the postoface, built on point of

New York during the revolution, for pro-
