LONDON, April 2.-The Lancet gives
particulars of an extraordinary case OF
multiple personality. The patient is n
girl between 12 and 10 years Of age who
has developed ten varieties of abnormal
personality. She comes of healthy
parents and was herself healthy in
body and mind until she was attacked
with influenza. Then came the changes
of personality.
In some cases the patient was totally
and in all cases partially, ignorant OF
her life during the other states. Ac-
quirements such as drawing and writ
ing and also the normal faculties were
present in certain states but lost in
others. While in a blind condition she
developed the faculty of drawing with
the aid of touch alone. Her character
and behavior in some states differed
widely from what they were in others.
The phases varied from few min
utes to ten weeks. The various stages
lasted about three years altogether,
until ultimately particularly abnor-
NAL stage was reached in which she
still remained at the date of report.
