505 _aIn 1650, Anne Green, a servant girl, gave birth to an illegitimate child. Sadly the baby died & poor Anne was accused of infanticide. In front of a crowd she was hanged & then taken to the College of Physicians to be dissected. But as Anne's body lay on the table & the doctors assembled, a strange rattle was heard in her throat.
