Ohio 1897 - 8-Foot Tall Wild Man Carries off Full Grown Sheep - Tirademan!

[Trogluddite]

There's always a bit of satisfaction upon finding something that Tirademan found - I realize that a few people may have bought his CD-Rom of Big News Prints and that Gigantor was prescient in setting up an archive for Tirademan's materials.  But there's so much that is missing (Tirademan stated he had over 1,000 articles).

 

This article is from The Plain Dealer of Cleveland (OH) on January 26, 1897.  I've again included a little before and a little after so members can see that this wild man story was taken just as seriously as a person injured by a shotgun cartridge and a local official urged to accept a position as Secretary to the President of the United States.
