16 Account of Henry Moss, ^c. 



smell of the negroes. I must not omit mentioning, that 

 Moss says, he never had the disagreeable smell, so cha- 

 racteristic of a great majority of the blacks. 



He has not observed, that any alteration in the quan- 

 tity, in the colour, or in the odour, of his urine has taken 

 place within the term of four years ; that is, since he 

 first began to change*. Yet he thinks, he is more 

 thirsty than he used to be. 



He says, his appetite is as good as ever it was. His 

 senses of seeing and hearing are not, in the least, im- 

 paired. He has not the visus nocturmis of the Albinos, 

 described by Wafer, and other writers. His sense of 

 smelling is as acute as formerly. His voice has not 

 undergone any change. It is neither tremulous nor 

 weak, but manly. The Abbfe Dicquemare says, that 

 the voice of the Avhite negress, already mentioned, wa^ 

 very diflferent from that of the blacks.
