Doctors Surprised at Vitality.—-.Body
to Medical School
The girl baby born with two heads
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William
Kasuow of Cambridge, Mass, last
Thursday, is still alive, much tothe
‘surprise of physicians and scientific
men.
Dr. Thomas A. Healon. the attending
physician, says it will be a matter of
only a short time before the infant
dies. The second head is attached
-to the back of the neck and is a trifle
smaller than the other. Students in
ompryology from Hartford Medical
school have interested themselves in
the case, and it has been decided to
give the body of the child to their de-
partment in case of its death.
