12-year old John Jacob Swaim had just finished driving a tractor when he saw a dark complexioned little man about the size of a 5-year old child, with pointed nose and ears, crouching about 20 ft away. The little man wore "shiny" clothing and carried 2-foot long cylinders on his back. He ran, apparently "floating," to a 50 foot disc hovering 5 ft above the ground, jumped in, and took off without tilting the saucer, lights shone from windows as it flew off faster than a jet. At the site were found numerous pear shaped footprints 2" x 4.5", with very narrow heels.
