Hatch, M. (1788). Price reduced: Theoriginal stone eater, (the only one in the world.) Is arrived, and performs every day, at Mr. Hatch's Trunk-Maker, No. 404, Strand, opposite the Adelphi. He eats and swallows stones! which afterwards may be heard to chink in his belly, the same as in a pocket. The present is allowed to be the age of wonders:---the idea of a man's flying in the air, twenty years ago, before the discovery of balloons, would have been laughed at by the most credulous! nor does the history of nature afford so extraodinary a relation as that of a man's eating and subsisting on pebbles, flints, &c. -but so it is! and ladies and gentleman have now an opportunity of seeing the most wonderful phenomenon of the age, who grinds, and swallows stone, &c. with as much ease as a person would crack a nut, and masticate the kernel. He appears not to suffer the least inconvenience from so ponderous, and to all appearance, so indigestible a meal. His merit is fully demonstrated by Sir Joseph Banks, Dr. Hunter, Dr. Monro, &c. &c. &c. Admittance, One Shilling. [publisher not identified].
