Account
At age seven the witness was set on a newly bought horse with no saddle or bridle. The horse spooked at a truck backfire, ran, and threw him over a barbed wire fence into briars. While crying and trapped, a huge female biped approached, seemed to communicate reassurance without speaking, then retreated to the woodline and watched until family members on horseback retrieved him.
