Footsteps

The witness and his boss pulled into the farm driveway late at night so the boss could relieve himself. While sitting in the parked car the witness told of his childhood sighting and both heard two-footed sidestepping cross the barn where moonlight showed through a gap. When backing out the witness clearly saw a woman in old-fashioned dress with bonnet and apron behind the car and thought he had struck her. He got out to check, found nothing under or around the car, and both left shaken.
