Two boys find footprints on Harris River bank
Account
Two cousins walking along a riverbank saw what the cousin thought was something standing about 100 feet ahead. The writer could not see it clearly without glasses, and the cousin then dismissed it as a stump. Going to the spot, they found three large human-like footprints in the sand, then left for a family picnic area.
