Washington 1907 - Wild Man Captured Near Tacoma

[Trogluddite]

These three clippings demonstrate how old newspaper clippings can be taken out of context by incautious researchers.  They are from The Wenatchee (WA) Daily World on September 26 and 28, 1907, respectively. An unscrupulous or credulous researcher might present these as evidence that a Bigfoot was captured near Tacoma in 1907.  However, the third article, from the Tacoma (WA) News Tribune on September 26, 1907, presents an entirely different perspective.
