Springfield Daily Republic (Springfield, Ohio) June 5, 1888
A Giant Unearthed
Passengers arrived in Springfield on the O.S. Trains this morning, say that the skeleton of a veritable giant had been unearthed by some workman, who are engaged in digging a cistern on the farm of Louis Mallow, west of Washington Courthouse. Judging from the size of the jawbone, which easily fits over the jaws of the workmen, the possessor of the skeleton must have measured eight or nine feet in height. It is not known whether the skeleton is that of an Indian or not.
