Back once again, by unpopular demand, is a repeat of that most fascinating news item reprinted verbatim from the Hazleton (Pa.) Sentinel, a daily newspaper, in August 1881, along with its original headline: < ======================= AN ALLEGED FOSSIL MAN ======================= About three miles from Ashley, a Mr. McCauley has the contract from the Wilkes-Barre Coal & Iron Co. for sinking a coal shaft. It is twenty feet square and is intended to have two tracks for carriages to run in hoisting up the coal, and is said to be the largest opening of the kind in the coal regions. It is located near the base of the mountain and has reached a depth of 475 feet. Saturday last, when the gang, or what is known as the second shift of men, were about retiring, fter firing off a course of holes, Tom Cassidy, the foreman, descended he shaft to ascertain the result of the explosion, and was astonished to find an immense cavity in one of the sides of the shaft. The explosion appeared to have a terrible effect and caused more damage than benefit on one side, but his astonishment was still greater increased on clearing away some of the refuse of the rock blown by the shots to discover a solid mass of rock in which appears a clearly-defined human shape of giant proportions. All the limbs, muscles and lina- ments are apparent. The rock is about 16 feet in length, 18 in breadth and about 8 in thickness. The dimensions of the human frame are giantly, meas- uring 12 feet in length and 4 feet cross the chest. Across the breast is the impression of a huge shield, about four feet in circumference, while the right hand lutches the broken and butt end f a large cutlass or sword. The rock was taken out whole and is now in possession of Mr. McCauley in Ashley. < ====================== < Here's another article that appears verbatim from the Shenandoah (Pa.) Evening Herald daily newspaper in August 1911: < ======================= FOSSILS FOUND IN MINE WORKINGS ======================= A remarkable specimen of the "carboniferous era" has just been unearthed at a depth of fifteeen hundred feet in the underground workings of the Ellengowan colliery of the Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron Company. The specimen is very beautiful and is highly prized by Inside Foreman Gwillym Jones who retained it as a curio. Miners at the face of one of the reasts discovered a large piece of slate with impressions of leaves and ferns deeply imbedded therein. The surface covered by these markings was five feet in length and of nearly the same width. After considerable labor, in which care was taken that the piece might e take out in its entirely, the workmen succeeded in their task. Several small pieces only were broken from the formation which was presented to those who took the slate from its natural bed. Quite a number of curios have already been taken from these workings. Several years ago a bunch of grapes, almost perfectly formed, was taken from this colliery. A trunk of a tree and a portion of a petrified snake were also found. One of the most interesting finds was that in which was perfectly formed the outlines of a human leg and, judging from the size, the owner of the member must have been a giant in stature. A number of these finds are on exhibition at the offices of Division Superintendent McDonald and Inside Foreman Jones. They are objects of much curiosity. < Please note that Ed Conrad, the ignorant bastard, hadn't even been born when these two articles were published.) < =========================== < MAN AS OLD AS COAL http://www.edconrad.com < =========================== < HUMAN REMAINS BETWEEN COAL VEINS CONFIRMS EVOLUTION IS A DEAD HORSE < http://likethedew.com/img/beating-a-dead-horse.gif < http://www.edconrad.com/pics/FINGERSx.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/OldestHumanSkull.JPG http://www.edconrad.com/pics/z11calv.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/Skullx.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/skullb.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/SkullBoulderSide.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/z8femur.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/FOSSILS08/HumanFemur.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/newtibia.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/HumanJaw3.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/TestResults.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/FirstDiscovery.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/OldestTool.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/MoreFossils.jpg < http://www.edconrad.com/pics/SaveTheWhale.jpg < http://www.edconrad.com/pics/InSlate3.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/InSlate2.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/InSlate11.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/GallBladder1.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/GallBladder2.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/GallBladdery.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/Scorpion.jpg http://www.edconrad.com/pics/PetrifiedPP.jpg < ================================== < WHERE THESE BEAUTIES WERE FOUND (Information Classified.

The final report, dated April 21, 2000, was issued by Dr. Nathan Sherman, director of laboratories. < "The specimen consists of 1 irregularly shaped, brown calculus weighing less than 0.0010 grams and measuring 1X1X0.5 mm.
