The tiny building hugs the ground among the ferns and searchers said it was possible to pass by a few feet away without seeing it so per fectly does it blend with the foliage. e Sheriffs officers sought out the "mystery woman" in hopes she might provide some lead in the hunt for Mrs. Avera Fergu son, and Mrs. Bernice Sharkey. When they found the hut, it was some, time before the knocks were answered." They said the house was black as a cave, inside and barely high enough to stand in. But it' was neat. Remembered "Cry" The woman, said' to be Hazel Arrington, consented to sketch a map of the area on the ground and she told officers she remem bered hearing a cry in the night Sunday, "like a human imitating a coyote." Some say the "mystery wom an" has been in the mountains since 1912; others say it was since her parents died! and still others say it was since the time her face was disfigured in an auto accident.. Her house ap peared to be about 25 years old. EATON'S DINNER HOUSE 112 enter Lake Ave. Ph. Z-44M ITALIAN AND AMERICAN DINNERS v SPECIAL All the Spaghetti and Homemade Ravioli you can eat.
