In his "Dictionnaire Philosophique" Voltaire gives the history of a woman with four well-formed and symmetrically arranged breasts; she also exhibited an excrescence, covered with a nap-like hair, looking like a cow-tail.

Percy thought the excrescence a prolongation of the coccyx, and said that similar instances were seen in savage men of Borneo.
Percy says that among some prisoners taken in Austria was found a woman of Valachia, near Roumania, exceedingly fatigued, and suffering intensely from the cold.

It was January, and the ground was covered with three feet of snow.

She had been exposed with her two infants, who had been born twenty days, to this freezing temperature, and died on the next day.

An examination of her body revealed five mammae, of which four projected as ordinarily, while the fifth was about the size of that of a girl at puberty.
They all had an intense dark ring about them; the fifth was situated about five inches above the umbilicus.
