Julia Pastrana, a Mexican Digger Indian was born to a family that lived in a cave who ate roots and tree bark to survive,
she was 4 and a half feet tall, her face
and body covered with straight black hair, her
ears and her nose were large, her teeth were all irregular and abnormal and according to one account she
had a double row of them in each jaw, but a examination of her mummy says that she did not.
She was discovered by a man named Theodor Lent who began exhibiting her worldwide, her act proved
she was good dancer and singer and she eventually married Lent, even on her deathbed she truly
believed that he loved her, she died from childbirth in 1860, her
hairy and deformed baby boy lived for three days, she died shortly thereafter.
After their death Lent had her and her baby mummified and then he resumed the tour exhibiting both ...
Lent eventually died of a brain disease, one of his final acts was to run around on a bridge and throwing money into
the river.
For many years, Julia's mummy was believed to be lost But both mummies ended up in Norway in 1921, on display
until 1970s when Norway authorities threatened to
confiscate both mummies they were stolen in 1979, recovered by police from a dump and stored, in 1990 it was discovered
at the Oslo Forensic Institute a little worse for wear, Julia was by all accounts a bright, sweet, interesting woman, she loved to read and exhibiting herself saved her
from grinding poverty of birth home, allowed her to see the world!

She cries
Lone wolf
Cookie crumbs
Love is...?
Damned old rat hole
Devil done his dirty work
Humpty Dumpty
Shakin Guitar man
Miss your smile
Sharing love
Mighty good book
Whenever I fall
Hypocrite
Rivers edge
He hears you cry
Devil's train
I believe that
The Lord can see
Someday you will
