|
|
| 1872 - At King's Sutton in Banbury, England an object resembling a |
|
|||
|
|
| haystack flew on an irregular course at one o'clock in the morning. |
|
|||
|
|
| Sometimes flying very high, sometimes very low, it was accompanied by |
|
|||
|
|
| fire and dense smoke. It produced much the same effect as a tornado, |
|
|||
|
|
| felling trees and walls. It vanished suddenly. (Source: Jacques |

|
| 1896 - A large airship flew over the small town of Camptonville, Yuba |
|
|||
|
|
| County,California and landed nearby at 9:00 p.m. Five men went out to |
|
|||
|
|
| investigate, and found the ship with its sole occupant, a bearded man |
|
|||
|
|
| who appeared to be deaf and mute. Some written communication was |
|
|||
|
|
| attempted, in response the man produced an "alphabet" and spelled out |
|
|||
|
|
| a message saying he lived in the Montezuma Mountains with his wife |
|
|||
|
|
| and two children. He declined to answer any further questions, so the |
|
|||
|
|
| five men left. The craft was seen flying off the next day. (Sources: |

|
|||
|
|
| Vader, Washington three days before, a family watched a very bright |
|
|||
|
|
| object approach their house at 7:15 a.m. It seemed to have a central |
|
|||
|
|
| dome with a revolving ring around it and was deep orange in the |
|
|||
|
|
| center. The craft tilted slightly to one side, hovered briefly over |
|
|||
|
|
| some nearby power lines, then brightened while making a low sweep |
|
|||
|
|
| over the area. Two of the witnesses saw what appeared to be a gray |
|
|||
|
|
| colored "shape" drop from the object and scurry away into the woods |
|
|||
|
|
| before the UFO departed. Later that week a mysterious dark "prowler" |
|
|||
|
|
| was seen peering through windows. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, |

|||

| into some nearby woods as their car approached. Ground traces and a |
|
|||
|
|
| missing plug of earth were found in the woods, at the suspected |
|
|||
|
|
| landing site. (Sources: Atlantic City Press, December 13, 1972; |

|
|||
|
|
| land from the direction of the sea at 7:30 p.m. It followed a car |
|
|||
|
|
| with three people inside. The headlights on the car dimmed but did |
|
|||
|
|
| not go out during the sighting, which ended when the UFO veered off |
|
|||
|
|
| into the sky. When the witnesses arrived home, they found the car's |
|
|||
|
|
| battery had no water in it, even though it had been serviced only two |
|
|||
|
|
| days prior to the sighting. (Source: Mark Rodeghier, UFO Reports |
