Dean Pigou tells the following story
II brilliant man who lost his mind
temporarily through overwork and was
confined i'm an English asylum: His
delusion was that his stomach was full
to repletion OF rats There was no
room for anything else. Hood said to
me. Go and talk with him and lead
up to the subject Of rats 1 found
him, as is very common. perfectly sane
on every subject but this. After some
conversation 1 said to him. feigning not
to know who he was: You seem to be n
very well informed man. Have you
given your attention to natural history,
because I notice that the question is
being discussed as to whether the spe-
cies Of the genus rat called the Norwe-,
gian still existsT Instantly he replied.
oh, certainly and unbuttoning his
dress, said, Every known species of
rat, sir, is here in my stomach and.
localizing the rat with his finger, said:
Here in this part Of my stomach is a
Norwegian rat. You can assure your
friends that as long as 1 am alive no
species can die Under the kind and
humane treatment of Bethlehem he
was soon a. work again and had, Of
course, no recollection Of his delusion."
