The case is referred to by the newspapers as one of the most remarkable known in medical science. The woman fell into a cataleptic trance on May 21, 1883, after giving birth to a child. It was thought at first that she was a victim of halucination, and the police were going to arrest her. At the beginning of her long sleep she suffered serious convulsive atâ€" tacks about every two months, but eventually all movement ceased. Her jaws were clenched violently, and ghe sank into the most profound leâ€" thargy, with physical insensibility and mental Iinertness. Dr. Charlier, who attended her throughout, was able at first to cause sensibility by injecting «ulphate of atropine subâ€" cutaneously, but he ceased . that treatment when he found that no permanent progress was induced. About five months ago the docâ€" tors saw signs of returning _ conâ€" sciousness, and renewed their efforts to revive her, but she did not open her eyes until Tuesday, when, feelâ€" ing the doctor‘s finger on her flesh she said: "You are pinching me." She answered the doctor‘s questions with "Yes" or "No,‘ but did not converse further. From her laconic answers it seemed that she was umable to recognize her relatives. She mistook her mother for her sisâ€" ter. Her memory appeared to be fixed on the time when she worked in the village sugar factory. Throughout her sleep she was fed on peptone administered through a quill where a tooth had been remoted for the purpose. She fell asleep at the age of 22 years, and awoke at the age of 42 to the consciousness of . exâ€" treme physical weakness and exâ€" haustion, from which she died. The body was almost a skeleton.
