  Once, at the request of two college professors, Pillsbury took a
memeory test which consisted of repeating, as accurately as he could,
a list of twenty-eight words and phrases which were read to him.
Here, in its strange entirety, is the list:  "Antiphlogistian,
periosteum, takediastase, Plasmon, ambrosia, Threlkeld, streptococcus,
staphylococcus, miscrococcus, Mississippi, Freiheit, Philadelphia,
Cincinnati, athletics, no Salamagundi, Oomisillecottsi, Bangmamvate,
Schelechter's Nek, Manzinyama, theosophy, catechism, Madjesoomalops."
Pillsbury repeated it without error and without hesitation.  Then he
recited it backward.  He repeated it again the next day, one way only.
He died, insane, in Frankfort, Pennsylvania, in 1906.
