NAN HAS ABNORMAL MEMORY
llllterate English Laborer Whose
Feats Have Recently Been caus-
ing Much Astonlshment

George HarbottIe, a laborer at a
Northumberland quarry, possesses a
memory which retains an indelible
Impression of every word which he
uears or reads, SAYS the Northwestern
Gazette. After once hearing read, or
reading himself, half a dozen book
uages Of any kind Of matter, he can
repeat them without emitting a sim
tie word.
One one occasion a nan who knew
Iarbottle bought a pamphlet Of
ongs from a street singer, and
lgcred him that he could not, with
ID 20 minutes, learn and correctly
.peat all the songs. Harbottle re-
Gated every song without a mistake
III minutes. The names of all the
icensed houses in Glasgow were read
cut to him three times and he repeat
ed them correctly in the reverse or
Ger in which they were read out.
'wo men read two different para
raphs from two newspapers stimuli
ancously and Harbottle repeated
ne paragraph correctly and made
nuly two mistakes in the other-a
rcmarkable feat. His foreman one
lay showed him a book containing
he record of his seven workmates for
jght months. 1t was at the dinner
our and the men were all sitting in
q group. In ten minutes, from mem
,ry, Harbottle told each man what
ne had done and the wages he had
armed during each week Of the pre-
yious eight months.
Being an illiterate man, he can
do nothing with figures, but other
wise his abnormal power seems to
triumph over the most severe tests to
which 1t can be put.
