HIS Trichiafisor H^^:^ o///'^/r continued for foma 
JL years,bothat a iv/^^^/^ in the ^/^^^ow^;2;and likewife 
by the Anus-^ the manner in fliort thus. This Woman 
having been gone fome months with her fecond Child, 
came to Diep^whtre carelefly going on board a Vefleljlhe 
hart h^r belly againft a i?lank;this bruife was followed by 
a humor which ended in a Fiftula j whence iffued great 
quantity oiHair, attended with much purulent matter, 
till at length the Fife era were corrupted,& theF^eces came 
that way too, fo that ftie died; Anatomy eafily difcovered 
the wonder of her ficknefs; the contiguous ^/ir^r/» were 
fphacelated; the right appendix oftheWombnot diftin- 
guifhable into its known parts,but confifting of or e long 
tumor, covered with a thick skin;which was opened? in it 
was found an oVal bony fubftance^hairy on the upper parr. 
Hollow &rough on the lower; one end of which had fome 
linesof a face; the other feem'd dcfigned for the infer- 
tion of the P^ertedrw o£ the neck. That this body was the 
fource of thatfuccefSonof //«/r, is plain from their be- 
lts agreeing with that on the bone; and likewife from 
the experiment of the Authors, who tells us; the Hair 
continued ftill t6 grow, though the bone had been kept 
a long timein Spirit of Wiae. This conception was in 
th^ Tuba, for the Womb it felf was found intixe. The

latistadlorily dilcourses of three things. Firft,how it came
