Account
The witness was sent back through the woods to fetch matches while on a swimming outing with his brother and a friend. Halfway through the woods he noticed a large hairy form standing behind a wide oak tree about 30 feet away. He watched the shoulder, arm and part of a leg sway slightly for up to half a minute before freezing and then running home. He told no one what he saw for years, thinking it was a monster.
