General

In the 1870s and 1880s, a correspondent named Jake would report strange phenomenon in the hills of the northern Pembroke district. In 1889 "The News" reprinted a story from "The New York World" about a strange, hairy, humanoid creature being seen by W.S. Peck near the Pembroke district. |Identifier: ms069_devlin_2001_08_19
