In July, 1797, as Mr. Wright, of Saint Faith’s, in Norwich, was walking

in his garden, a flight of bees alighted on his head, and entirely

covered his hair, till they made an appearance like a judge’s wig. Mr.

W. stood upwards of two hours in this situation, while the customary

means were used for hiving them, which was completely done without his

receiving any injury. Mr. Wright had expressed a strong wish, for some

days before, that a flight of bees might come on his premises.
