Summary/Description: On a summer morning—about 6 a.m.— Barbara and her uncle were saddling horses and, as they left the barn by a rear door, they spotted an object “greyish white and as big as a boxcar” about half a mile away. Stunned, they watched it for about a minute. Barbara’s aunt and Earl rushed from the house when the two called to them, but Earl was too late to see the cigar-shaped object which seemed to lift from the ground with a noise “like the transference of air,” Barbara said. It disappeared so rapidly she couldn’t tell which way it went, she said.

“When I see those rockets lift off now, on t.v., I just say to myself ‘this thing was something else!'”
