On this day in 1880, farmer David Lang, vanished mid step while walking across his yard to check his horses. The event was witnessed by five people, including the Lang family and Judge August Peck, who was visiting at the time. Nothing unusual was discovered in the grass where he last stood, though within a year it turned a strange yellow color. Emma Lang claims to have occasionally heard her father’s voice calling for help, as from some great distance, though he was never seen again.
