Maine 1896 - Hairy Wild Man Frightens Plucky Girl (UPDATED)

[Trogluddite]

From the Washington (D.C.) Post on July 26, 1896. 

 

UPDATE Jan 2026: While searching for a different story, I found what appears to be an original report from a local Maine newspaper.  I've bumped the prior report down in favor of this article published in the Sun-Journal of Lewiston, Maine, on July 21, 1896.
