Description
Excerpt from Report of the Autopsy of the Siamese Twins: Together With Other Interesting Information Concerning Their Life Their mother, during their infancy, entirely recognized their separate individuality, and also the fact that there existed a common sensibility in the centre of the band. She stated, what is undoubtedly true, that at first the ligament was so short that the boys were compelled always to be face to face; even in the bed they could not turn without being lifted up and placed in the desired position. As they grew, the ligament seemed gradually to stretch, until they were able to stand side by side, and even back to back, and to turn themselves in bed by rolling one over the other. The father being a fisherman of the laboring class, the boys lived in one of the floating houses of the country, and soon became famous swimmers, spending much of their time in the river. It was the peculiarity of their movements in the water which first attracted the attention of a Scotch merchant, Mr. Robert Hunter, and finally led to their leaving their native country in quest of fortune. For many years Chang and Eng Bunker lived in North Carolina, where they were married, and raised large families of children, Chang being the father of ten, Eng of nine.
