Freak Show Ad of the Day
THE BEAR WOMAN. --- This remarkable freak of nature is at present on exhibition in this City, and attracts a number of --- we had like to have said admirers; but that would be going a little too far, --- visitors. She is, indeed, a wonderful curiosity, --- a link between the human being and the brute creation, and presents a subject of deep thought to the student of the marvelous. She will remain in Raleigh to-day, only, and will bear seeing.
--- The Raleigh Register, February 18, 1856.
