Summary
Daniel Defoe, in his book The Life and Adventures of Duncan Campbell, describes this unnamed deaf woman as "a miracle of wit and good nature," able to speak distinctly and to lipread easily, with a highly cultivated mind. This was in the days before the first British school for the deaf was established, and there is no indication of how she was educated.
