Flying Saucer Again Sighted

This newspaper article from the October 29, 1959, edition of the Oliver Chronicle reports on recent sightings of unidentified aerial phenomena in Oliver, British Columbia. The primary account comes from Mrs. Mabel Ferguson, who observed a bright, sun-like object in the early morning hours of October 24, 1959. Mrs. Ferguson described the object as appearing in the east, dividing into two distinct parts, reuniting, and then moving southward. She noted that the object was very bright, resembling aluminum foil reflecting light, and that it eventually departed at high speed, which she described as taking off like a rocket. The article also references an earlier sighting from several weeks prior, involving Mr. Dick Lloyd, who reported hearing a humming sound while working in his garden in the Acre Lots area. Mr. Lloyd observed a circular or oval-shaped, whitish object moving across the sky at high speed. This earlier sighting was reportedly confirmed by other residents, including Mrs. J.H. Johnston. The article notes that all three witnesses were initially hesitant to report their experiences due to a fear of public ridicule, but remained certain of what they had observed.
