Account
As a nine-year-old riding a bicycle on a summer day, the witness stopped by a cemetery to fix a slipped chain and noticed a very tall black figure standing motionless behind the far stone wall. The figure was estimated at nine to ten feet tall beside a small tree and appeared to be watching. The witness fled on foot with the bicycle and later returned to find nothing there.
