JBB9, bat they had but one continuous body with Single spinal column. They had Separate vital organa, arms heads and legs, Cooper stated. •They might have lived until they vere o’.d," commented Dr. Cooper, «Th« cause cf their death at the ag? o f eight months, had nothing to di with the joining of their bodle . They died of pneumonia." pr. Cooper related how ho traveled over the country with the parents d ( the babies and the twins were exhib-) ited in fairs and museums. ‘■There should be no question as to the right of such children to live if their brain is sound," remarked Dr. Cooper, referring to the discussion : . the Medich twins were born. Matty persons have questioned the right of the children to become a burden to their parents, society and' themselves by continuing to live. "Since the South Rend babies, seemingly have good brains—l should say yes". Dr. Cooper said. “When a

child is an absolute monstrosity—known to the medical world as an anencphalis monster without brains. I think the attending physician should let the child die. What could is ever be without a brain?” The doctor in his forty-two years of practice has attended four mother who gave birth to “ancecphalis”, he said. "In each case, I did just that. I served the physical connection wit it the mother, allowing the bit of manstrtns life to fade out. “Os course you understand, in no case would they have lived for any but a short time. Al! physicians of long practice have had such cases “But where the brain is good—that is different.” 0 'Washington Township Residents At Time 1850 Census Was Taken J. F.
