a human being cuii live with
out brains was proved 1.-st
nlghi when a bubv fJr:v
hours old died. Tliu child
was brought to the hospital
when seven hours old. Its
head was almost flat on top
and the eyes stoucl out from
their sockets, while its
breathing was normal and it
cried as an ordinary Milan;.
Unlike most infants less than
a day old, it took nourish
ment greedily.
The child "died while being
fed without any sign to indi
cate approaching death and
with no struggle. The doc
tors declare there is not an
other case of the kind known
to medical science.
