Frederick Treves was walking in London. He was a doctor in London hospital. As he was walking he saw a thing that made him feel interesting or may be it could cause him a heart attack. He saw a picture with some writing under it. It said “come in and see the elephant man. Two pence.” Immediately, he went in the shop. The shopkeeper didn’t seem to be friendly. His name was Silcock. “The shop was close, come again tomorrow.” Silcock said. “I willing to paid more than 2 pence to look at the elephant man.” Treves said. So Silcock led Treves to the room. In that room, there was a creature sitting on a chair, it didn’t look like either a man or a woman. The creature had something cover his head. But the worse thing was the horrible smell in that room. Soon, Treves went out of the room. He almost threw up. Treves decided to take this guy to the hospital to have a closer look.
Next day, Treves came so early to take, Mr. Merrick, the elephant man to the hospital. As Merrick started to walk, Treves noticed that Merrick had a problem with walking. He took almost a minute to walk a step. At first, there was nobody on the footpath but now there is a post man and a group of kids. During the way Treves gave Merrick his card. It said Dr. Treves. When he got to the hospital the elephant was lost.
Two years later.
The police found him and sent him back to London hospital because Merrick had Dr. Treves’s card in his trouser’s pocket. Unfortunately, the hospital didn’t have the empty room. Mr. Treves wrote a letter to the Hospital Chairman to ask for some help. The readers were really kind. They gave a lot of money back. So that means Merrick could stay at the hospital all his life. But at first, it was a little difficult for him to stay in the hospital because some people didn’t know him. And they just laugh at him. But later it was better. Merrick liked to read the books. He liked to read love stories.
One day Treves came in Merrick’s room and he saw Merrick look at a picture in his hand. It was the picture of his mother and he put it by the flower. He cried out. Soon, many people heard about his story and he became famous. He was on the newspapers and in TV.
One day, there was a special visitor and then Merrick sit up and he couldn’t believe his eyes. She was Queen Alexandra. She talked to Merrick for long time. And she gave him a present.
