Mrs. Anne Eilbes answered the doorbell to find on the doorsteps a man wearing a narrow-brimmed hat with a brown face "like smoke meat" marked with many vertical gray lines; the chin was narrow and the mouth a puckered opening only 1/4 " in size. He was holding a white staff 5 ft long. When he did not answer her queries, her husband Peter went out and grabbed at the being, but "went back into shock" and had to retreat. He saw 4 other similar beings on the street; they were moving in long slow jumps "like astronauts on the moon," hitting the ground with their sticks with a clicking sound. They looked deformed, "like gnomes," with claw like hands and bowed legs. As the being "drifted" across the lawn, he raised a bent hand to the witnesses.
