twelve years ago q family named SAWYER,
LIVING IN the town of Westbrook, were sur

COW, carefully kept in their stables, was s'dry-
ing up" This continued until Mrs. Sawyer
discovered, some time after, the prints OF
human fingers in the soap grease barrel in the
stable Communicating this discovery to her
husband, he procured help from the neighbors
and a thorough search of the sable followed.
An examination of the hay -mow disclosed a
small hole, which, being followed up by pitch
Ing away the hay, led to a sort of den like
place in the interior Of the NOW. Here was
found a strange being a man apparently of
about ~ years, half clothed in rags, shoe kingly
flthy. and having no feet. One foot was mis-
sing Just above the ankle; the other was gone a
nue. nigner up, the stump terminating in an
obiong way, and in a manner showing that it
was not the work of a surgeon, nor had il re-
eeiNeo the attention OF surgeon when lost.
HIS face and head were OF average intelligence,
but not q word could be got from him He
had lived there a number of weeks subsisting
on the milk OF the cow and the grease He was
turned over TO the town authorities and placed
IN the poor house, where he now is and has
been for the past twelve years
All attempts TO solve the mystery concern
ing TINS strange being have proved futile. No
one has been found yet who ever saw or heard
Of him, and during the whole twelve wears he
has never uttered q word. Various expert
menfs have been tried TO loose his tongue On
enc occasion ne was given bottle containing
a pint OF whiskey. He seemed TO understand
exactly what II was, for be placed il to his lips

&c, be Is like a wild beast. In the summer he
Is kept IN a sort of a wooden cage like struc-
ture in the yard. He is very shy of strangers
ana VIII hide his head in his blankets when
they approach. His quarters are comfortable,
ana ~ is impossible to- give him better for
sanitary reasons.
Where the creature came from is certainly
mysterious matter. He could not have walked
from distance, as be erawls upon his knees
very slowly. The only theory ATTEMPTED Is
thls;-A few weeks before the man was dis
covered. the steamer Sarah Sands arrived at
this port from Liverpool with a large number
OF emierants IL Is conlectured that this being
might have been a burden to some over the
water. Mr.. sawyer (since deceased) hauled a
load home from The steamers wharf az that
tune, and 1t Is reasoned that the man might
