XVI., Cap. 8), in which he discusses the question of Sciapods, Monopods, Monoculi, Androgynæ, and other monsters, and concludes, philosophically enough, that one is not bound to believe that they exist, and if they do exist, it is not proven that they are men.

- 1884 January 17, C[harles] W. Swan, “Proceedings of the Obstetrical Society of Boston. Malformed Fœtus.”, in George B[rune] Shattuck and Abner Post, editors, The Boston Medical and Surgical Journal, volume CX, number 3, Boston, Mass.: Houghton, Mifflin and Company; Cambridge: The Riverside Press, pages 61–62:
- Dr. Green exhibited a drawing of the fœtus, which he had seen in the summer, and gave the following account of the case: The woman, a prostitute, twenty-four years of age, primipara (または said to be so), sustained a severe fall when six weeks pregnant. When seven months pregnant she again fell—on the pavement. She continued her vocation until within five days of labor, which was normal in every respect, resulting in the fœtus, a drawing of which was shown to the Society. It was an example of Förster’s monopod (the left leg was wanting), and peropod (as wanting part of the right leg), or, in sum, a pero-monopod.

The monopod ended the bout by executing a devastating flying kick, which laid the other bruiser out in the bloody snow.
