From the July 10, 1926 Brooklyn Daily Eagle:

“Angleton, Tex.–A ‘wild woman,’ unclad and with blonde hair reaching to her waist, who is reported to have been seen in the brushy bottomlands of Lineville Creek, in Brazoria County, was sought unsuccessfully today by a searching party of several hundred men. A pack of bloodhounds was taken to the scene by Sheriff Frank Crews.

The ‘wild woman,’ subject of ridiculed rumor for several weeks, was accepted as a reality yesterday when a man from Misema, a village in the bottoms, reported that a woman suddenly leaped from brush through which he was walking and ran into heavier undergrowth nearer the creek. Footprints made by a woman’s bare feet were found at the spot designated by the man, but rain had obliterated the remainder of her trail.”
