enlarged, until at the age of three it measured when erect 3
inches. At this age he was 3 feet 7 inches high and weighed 64 pounds.
The last case mentioned was an infant who experienced a change of voice
at twelve months and showed hair on the pubes. At three years he was 3
feet 4 1/2 inches tall and weighed 51 1/4 pounds. Smith, in Brewster's
Journal, 1829, records the case of a boy who at the age of four was
well developed; at the age of six he was 4 feet 2 inches tall and
weighed 74 pounds; his lower extremities were extremely short
proportionally and his genitals were as well developed as those of an
adult. He had a short, dark moustache but no hair on his chin, although
his pubic hair was thick, black, and curly. Ruelle describes a child of
three and a quarter years who was as strong and muscular as one at
eight. He had full-sized male organs and long black hair on the pubes.
Under excitement he discharged semen four or five times a day; he had a
deep male voice, and dark, short hair on the cheek and upper lip.

Stone gives an account of a boy of four who looked like a child of ten
and exhibited the sexual organs of a man with a luxuriant growth of
hair on the pubes. This child was said to have been of great beauty and
a miniature model of an athlete. His height was 4 feet 1/4 inch and
weight 70 pounds; the penis when semiflaccid was 4 1/4 inches long; he
was intelligent and lively, and his back was covered with the acne of
puberty. A peculiar fact as regards this case was the statement of the
father that he himself had had sexual indulgence at eight. Stone
parallels this case by several others that he has collected from
medical literature. Breschet in 1821 reported the case of a boy born
October 20, 1817, who at three years and one month was 3 feet 6 3/4
inches tall; his penis when flaccid measured 4 inches and when erect 5
1/4 inches, but the testicles were not developed in proportion. Lopez
describes a mulatto boy of three years ten and a half months whose
height was 4 feet 1/2 inch and weight 82 pounds; he measured about the
chest 27 1/2 inches and about the waist 27 inches; his penis at rest
was 4 inches long and had a circumference of 3 1/2 inches, although the
testes were not descended. He had evidences of a beard and his axillae
were very hairy; it is said he could with ease lift a man weighing 140
pounds. His body was covered with acne simplex and had a strong
spermatic odor, but it was not known whether
