Mr and Mrs Ron ferret are shopping on Grafton street, saw three dwarfs - two men and a woman-standing 3.5 inches (8.8 cm) tall and wearing baggy clothing that gave the impression of a simulated " ordinary person in street clothes." 

The material was unfamiliar to Mrs. ferret. The dwarves had rough, wrinkled skin of a dark brown color that looked very old, although it seemed young. They had large slanted "Oriental" eyes that seemed to "stick out", very short hair, and pointed ears. 

They wandered the streets in sandals, looking into shop Windows, and other passers-by stayed away from them. They didn't say anything. 

The ferrets were a few feet away, and the witnesses suggested that the three might have been performers from a children's play, but concluded that the figures were too strange for that.

Time: morning
Summary: Mr. & Mrs Ron Ferret, shopping on a downtown Grafton street, saw 3 odd dwarfish people—two male and a female—3.5” tall and wearing baggy clothes that gave the impression of simulated “ordinary man in the street clothes.” The material was unfamiliar to Mrs Ferret. The dwarfs had rough, wrinkled skin of deep brown color that looked very old, although they seemed to be young. They had large, slanted “oriental” eyes that seemed to “pop out,” very short hair, and pointed ears. They shuffled along the streets in sandals looking in store windows, and other passerby kept well away from them. They said nothing. The Ferrets came within several feet of them, and they suggested the three might be performers from a visiting children’s show, but they concluded the figures were even too strange for that.
