Recently on ~ farm seven miles from this town L saw one ot the flying saucers.It was an object the shape of a sauger, flying very high and n~ a vcrynigh rate of speed. or hugh size, made of aluminun add power ed by motors.~ot jets. It i s invisiable unless the sun strikes it at the proper angle. There were four other adults in the partythat saw it. Just thought you might be interested in knowing this. Very truly yours.
