An object was observed. Traces found.

One silver domed disc, about 40 feet across, around 1500 feet away, was observed by two female witnesses, typical age 10, in a forest for over one minute (Maclennan). A whirring sound was heard. One 6-foot-tall short-armed being, wearing a silver suit, was seen.

Two ten-year old girls heard a strange humming sound while playing in a field near their house; appearing to come from a nearby woods, they approached and saw an object on or near the ground, of a cylindrical shape, surmounted by a small dome with a steady red light. The object was perhaps 30 feet long and of a metallic color; a red band encircled the lower section. The girls, approximately 300 yards away, believed the object was two feet above the ground---the same height as a fence situated between them and the object. They could see no landing gear. To the right of the object was a very tall thin "man," partially hidden by bushes in between; at least six-foot tall, his arms were disproportionately short, and he was dressed all in silver. When he started to move toward them, the girls became frightened and fled; at a safer distance they turned and saw the man had disappeared; the object then began to ascend, moving off in three jerky "stepped up" maneuvers and then ascending vertically at terrific speed. They hurried home and told their parents, who said they had heard the humming sound. The police were notified, and a circular area of about 100 yards of minor damage, including singed trees and underbrush, was found at the site.
