It was back in 1977 my Mother & her sister, & I had been down to Kosciusko, & as we were coming down the hill where Dolly Clark lived (on Green Rd now) I saw this big black cat crossing the road at the forks going toward Bethany Church. It did have a long black tail dragging so it wasn't a bobcat. Going to work with this friend, Bessie Blanche Hammer, & was telling her about it. She said she had seen the same thing crossing at the same place. We have heard several cats letting out one of their "meows". It sounded like a woman & would make the hair on your head stand up. I've read that there isn't any panthers in Miss. but I don't think they know what they are talking about. Peggy
