TO SANGIB AND TALAUT 



171 



came from long distances in Talaut to see this ^^ oman, and I 

 fancy that she supposed that she had been the main ol>ject of 

 our visit to Beo. She was an emaciated old woman who 

 had suffered severely from fever a few weeks previously, but 

 seemed quite pleased to receive her distinguished visitors.

She exhibited the curious and interesting abnormality of 

 two functional nipples on each of her breasts. I tried to 

 find out if there was a history of the same abnormality in 

 her family, and she told me that her grandfather had had 

 four and the child of one of her sisters four also, but could 

 think of no other instances.
