Posted (edited)

The first story (and others that are basically the same) describes the wild man as "perfectly nude" but also covered by hair.  This article was published in The Patriot-News of Harrisburg (PA) on October 4, 1909.

However, a local man accused of exposing himself to a school teacher was arrested and the "wild man" was declared a hoax.  This article was published in The Semi-Weekly New Era of Lancaster (PA) on October 16, 1909.
