STRANGE FREAKS OF NATURE
WelI-Authenticated Cases of Dumb
ness Which Scientists Are Un-
able TO Explain.

The London Lancet recently dug up
from its old files the following story:
A farmer of Somersetshire made a
vow in the presence of his wife never
to speak TO her again ii she bore him
another daughter. He already had
three. A son was born, but, strange
to say, when the child became old
enough to talk and did talk to his
mothers and sisters, the father could
never get a word out of him." and
what was more the boy could not talk
to any man. This was assumed in the
neighbOrhood TO be a punishment OF
the man for his rash vow. The re-
publication of this curious case led to
the appearance of another similar tale
of intermittent- ephenisr- -saeeetes- for
by a clergyman Of Bath. In this in
stance a young man of IS years had
never spoken 10 his father nor to any
one in the neighborhood but his moth
er and sisters. And he could not talk
with them in the presence of his ia
Their. But when he visited the clergy
man in a neighboring town he talked
as well as anyone When asked for
an explanation of his curious actions
he had none TO offer. II simply can't
talk, no matter how hard | try" was
the substance of his answer. lie had
heard something of a rash vow" by
his father. but could give no further
details. If these stories are to be ac-
cepted as true. they may perhaps be
explained as the result of what are
called fixed ideas" which sometimes
dominate slightly disordered or UNI
steady minds.
