Middletown, N. Y., Nov. 16. – Hunters from Susquehanna, Pa., while excavating for a hunt near Shohola Glen discovered a cave in which they found the skeleton of a man of gigantic size. It was swathed in rawhide trappings that kept it in a sitting posture, the knees drawn up to the hand and clasped in a bony embrace with fleshless arms. Near the skeleton were several bowls of reddish clay, almost as hard as flint. A stone tablet was found near the skeleton’s side covered with rude pictures of birds and beasts, among them one of a monster half beast, half reptile. A number of implements were also found in the cave, among them a huge ax made of stone and stone spearheads of unusual size.

As a dedicated researcher of giants, it is with great excitement that I bring to your attention yet another remarkable discovery. In 1900, hunters from Susquehanna, Pennsylvania, stumbled upon a cave in Shohola Glen, where they found the skeleton of a man of gigantic size. The skeleton was found swathed in rawhide trappings that kept it in a sitting posture, with its knees drawn up to its hands and clasped in a bony embrace with fleshless arms.

What is even more intriguing about this find is the presence of several bowls of reddish clay, almost as hard as flint, near the skeleton. Alongside them, a stone tablet was discovered, covered in crude pictures of birds and beasts, among them one of a monster half-beast, half-reptile. A number of implements were also found in the cave, among them a huge ax made of stone and stone spearheads of unusual size.

It is interesting to note that this discovery, made over a century ago, was downplayed and brushed under the rug by those in positions of power, who feared the implications of such a find. As a society, we cannot continue to dismiss these historical accounts documenting human skeletons of gigantic proportions. We must explore the evidence with an open mind and seek to uncover the truth about giants and their place in our history. The discovery of this prehistoric skeleton only reinforces the need for further investigation and challenges our preconceived notions of what is possible.
