Account
Police Capt. Larry Bernard saw about 30 footprints, slightly longer than 14 inches long, 8 inches wide, about 2 inches deep in hard packed soil where his own feet did not leave a dent, on the Rocky Boy Indian Reservation. They were around the house of Eagleman, father-in-law of Pete Walking Eagle, and led towards the Bearpaw Mountians. Long reddish hairs were found on a barbed-wire fence. Bernard was to send casts and a hair sample to the state crime lab at Missoula.
