They describe the beast as having a head like an ape and square shoulders like a human being. From the shoulders of the creature there extend legs or arms, which terminate in great claws. The body of the monster, which is fully six feet in length, is of a reddish-brown tint, very like that of a lizard, and terminates in a tail like that of a fish. The creature's bodv is bare of unv covering, but about the head and nee it is a mane of reddish linir. It is needless to say that the county is excited over the. strange animal. Various parties surround the creek each day is: hopes of capturing the beast, but up to the present time their endeavor'* have not been crowned with ‘•iiccoss.
