It is told that the school inspector first noticed it in an examination in dictation. - I assume that she was taught the forward writing with her right hand in school, because although[sic] not having written for years she yet is as accomplished as when she was in school. If she were a very bright person one might reason that she was just "clever" but she is far from it. No doubt some part of her brain is affected. Morris Steggerda Jamaica 1927 [end]
