25 YEARS AGO
For the second time in nine years Sylvia Lake’s sea serpent has been seen, according to some visitors at the lake Sunday [presumably June 11 or 18, 1916]. They maintain that they saw the serpent while on the lake Sunday morning, according to a report brought here by George Delaney and other members of the Gouverneur-Edwards road force.
According to their description, the sea serpent is about nine feet long, has a head as big as a man’s and a long spiny tail. The spectators think they saw six legs when the serpent dived into the water. It has ears like a mule and dark brown eyes with light brown hair covering its face and red whiskers falling from the lower jaw.
