Account
Plymouth Lake is not on a road map, may be a town or a lake. Boys were playing in the woods about 4 p.m. when they heard a grunt, looked up and saw a hairy man staring at them. They saw the creature that they saw only from the waist up "looking like a cave man." It was on a small cliff on a hill.
