| FROM OUR ARCHIVES Bigfoot in Maine? 10-foot-tall ‘wild man’ was killed in 1886, newspapers reported The story starts in early October 1886 when “an affrighted Frenchman from over the line” arrived in Waterville to weave a frightening tale of woe. “The Frenchman’s story, which is implicitly believed, is that three men were camping out in the woods about a hundred miles north of Moosehead Lake,” the Waterville Sentinel reported. “Two of the campers were away from the camp for a week and came back to find the dead body of their companion.” |
