Account
E.O. (Tex) McNeil, coon hunting with father and two uncles in the Big Cypress River bottoms between Cason and Pittsburg, heard strange scream that frightened hounds. Could find no evidence. Next week the same thing happened and they found tracks. No size mentioned, but the article makes clear that he is now satisfied they were sasquatch tracks.
