In a pinewood on Cape Cod, Lloyd Costa saw 2 people near a round dome like "tent" 20 ft in diameter, only 35 ft away. A fluorescent blue light came from inside the "tent." He walked away, but on hearing a humming noise, looked back to see that the "tent" was encircled by multicolored rings; it began to rise and fall, and showed luminous portholes. A car stopped, and Mr. Elfe, a fried of the witness, came into the wood calling for him; he too saw the UFO. The "people" near the object, were described as small "resembling puppets," and surrounded by something gauzy. There was a smell like almonds or cyanide, which made Costa feel sick. His friend helped him back to his car. The next day he returned to the spot, and found a circle of about 20 6" holes; there were also pieces of a whitish woven material "like spider web, but very strong," some of which the witness took and saved. He also took home some of the trampled pine needles, which still had an almond like scent; when he put these, in a cardboard box, near some potted plants, the plants died in 3 days.
