This conanuni cation is from a citizen of New York City-at the the above address for some fifteen years. Should it be required of me - I woUld gl.adl7 give all necessary references -as to my-reliabilit7 -and to assure you now of my-absolute truth1'ulness -and attention to detail - in regard to the following - Returning as wsual, from St. V1ncent s Hospital (West 11th St. and 7th Ave. NYC) to rq home -as above - a short distance -and a regular route for several years -at 3 AM or near that t1me -in the month of Febru.ary. At an intersecti011 of fin roads -which I have to cross -there is a fairl7 large garage (corner of Per17 Street and 7th Ave) Attached to the garage i s a small space (wired in) where three or four cars sometimes park. Bordering this space are tvo large apt. houses -quite close to each other, but the space aa a bon mentioned is quite clear. It was a very cold night was hur:t')'"l to -.:r ~, when to fllY utter astonisr.ment I saw a con e shaped object of small dimensioo tranlling at gzeat s peed, in the space and apparently heading directly into the wall of one of the apt houses. The whole tbinl ao rapid that I could only' stand and watch. There was no one Oil the street at that hour and ne traffic (this is the Greenwich Village area). I could DOt therefore refer to ~ other person. At the tull ot the cone there waa a terrific rourMi light of blue white intensity. At the tail o~ the cone was what appnrecl to be !ina. The night waa ver;r dark, and the area around the garage received. no light troa the dim street lights, so that this cone waa a sort gt'e7 again" the black baekgxoo,u"td. Froa the end of the cone was a aott glow. 'nlere waa no sound vb&teTer. The terrific light at the tull ar the cone hould haft lighted up the entire wall ot the apt. house and general area, but there was absolutel7 no refiex:ion troa it 011 azvthing. This aPJ:Brition euddenl~ disappeared. withou t sound and at the mament. when it should haft crashed into the wall. The light did not just go out, as though tGined ott b7 an electric switch, btt there waa inetantaneous blackness and -nothing Not wishin to expose myself to ridicule I said very-little about it, except ot a tew close triends. Even aa I write you nov my stat .. nts ae open to question, but I feel I should do ao. I have a detaUed sketch ot thia apparition should you wish to have it, and will notify me. I aa per- sonall1 afraid of things of this kind and know absolutely nothing about technical or scientific matters. This was not, therefore, an,.thitg that I might have seen in some book dealing with these subjects. I am two years late in sending this intotmation, and am spurred on now to do so, having seen a further peculiarity in the sky, but this last could have a reasonable e~anation, t hough the other does not, as I teel about it. Believe me sirs, most fal thful
