I could estimate that because it was so close to the mountain ridge where trees and clumps of trees were visible for com- parison. While we were watching the cigar-shaped thing, for four or five minutes as it paced the train, we noticed that another object had joined it. This second object appeared very suddenly in back of the first one. It was a disc-shaped thing. Both of them were very shiny, we noticed... If my estimate of size on the cigar-shaped thing was correct then the disc-shaped object would have been about 100 feet in diameter, flat on the bottom with a shallow dome on top. aosnc swe wt Mr. Richard Hall SATELLITE 721 Burdette Street New Orleans 18, La.

They were moving at about the same speed as the train and they were very close to the top of the ridge, not more than 500 feet above it, I should say. Then they began to rise, slowly at first and then much faster. In a matter of seconds they had risen so high that we couldn’t see themany more from the train window. All over the world credible witnesses are reporting exper- iences similar to mine. Holding these people up to ridicule does not alter the existing facts.
