AI-Generated Summary
This document is a 1897 newspaper report detailing a sighting of a 'globe of fire' over Kamloops, British Columbia. The object was observed by multiple witnesses for two hours as it moved across the sky.
On July 12, 1897, an elderly resident of a local old folks home in Kamloops, British Columbia, observed an unusual aerial phenomenon. At approximately 2:00 AM, the witness, while rising to take medicine, looked out a window and spotted a large globe of fire ascending above a hill located east of the Industrial School. The object appeared to expand and flutter laterally while continuing to rise to a significant altitude. As it moved toward the southwest, the object periodically emitted streaks of light from its sides. The witness alerted neighbors, and a group gathered to observe the light as it continued to rise and travel across the sky. The phenomenon remained visible for two hours before eventually disappearing in the southwest. This account was subsequently published in The Weekly Columbian on July 28, 1897.
. . . a huge globe of fire rising above the hill east of the Industrial School, which upon looking through his window more attentively, seemed to expand and flutter from side to side, but still kept rising to a great height and advancing to the southwest, and at intervals streaks of light would dart out to the sides.
