Maroc Presse reported that one of its | | employees, Mr. E., the driver of a delivery truck and "a man of sane | | judgment and excellent eyesight," observed an object flying over the | | Beth River. "I am positive it was not an aircraft or any known | | machine but a circular, flat craft which had the appearance of | | copper. It flew normally for some time, and then it suddenly flipped | | over. Therefore, I was able to see the whole disc and was amazed when | | it came down into a field where it landed on edge, very gently. | | Almost immediately it rose into the sky at great speed, resumed its | | horizontal position and was soon lost to sight." (Source: Jacques | | Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, p. 241; | | Maroc-Presse, November 4, 1954). | | | | 1954 - At 6:00 a.m. a reportedly reliable witness encountered a thick | | fog in Palavas, Herault, France.

(Source: Larry Hatch, U | | computer database, case 4122, citing Jean Sider, Dossier 1954 et | | l'Imposture Rationaliste, p. 223). | | | | 1954 - Two dwarf humanoids wearing metallic suits with helmets were | | seen in a thick fog at 6:30 a.m. at a farm in Mareil-sur-Loir, | | France.

When she opened the door they ran inside and hid under | | the living room couch. When she looked out the window, she saw an | | "elliptical moon" object lighting up her backyard and part of the | | pasture beyond. Going to the front door, she discovered a strange | | little vehicle that had landed on her lawn, which resembled a | | Volkswagen without fenders or doors. From the top emerged three small | | men dressed in dark garments, one of whom communicated with her | | telepathically, saying, "Are there any pigs in that field? They are | | hungry." Then she saw, near the men, two peculiar looking creatures | | covered with fuzzy hair, but standing erect. She retreated back | | inside her house, and when she looked out again the object was | | airborne, and the "moon" was gone. Later she learned that several | | pigs had been lost at a nearby farm.

There he was told he | | would find a metallic sphere, which he did. The sphere was small and | | covered with tiny holes. It suddenly started shooting bright beams of | | light in different directions. The whole area was next illuminated by | | a bright glow, and two huge, saucer-shaped objects appeared and flew | | directly overhead. Both were dripping water and were emitting a | | strong heat wave. They were silent and had three rotating white | | spheres on the bottom, and were emitting multicolored lights. The | | objects then descended out of sight and dimmed their lights. After | | that, two tall humanoid figures wearing uniforms and helmets with | | transparent visors approached Castillo from the woods and told him | | not to be afraid. The two figures took him to a nearby clearing, | | where a flying craft now appeared overhead, shooting down a beam of | | yellow light that surrounded both the witness and the humanoids. He | | was then transported inside the object where he saw two more tall, | | smiling entities. The beings removed their helmets; they had handsome | | human features, and shoulder length, blond hair. Some of the men wore | | tight fitting silvery outfits with orange boots and gloves, while | | others wore brown outfits. The witness was given information about | | upcoming Earth changing events, and was given an extensive tour | | onboard the craft.

Jeffers, The | | Pennsylvania Bigfoot). | | | | 1975 - Dick Jackson, age 56, awoke late at night around two o'clock | | in the morning in Bokoelia, Florida and stepped outside his trailer | | home. The next thing he recalls, he found himself standing beside a | | domed object, with steps leading up to a door. He climbed the steps | | and was invited in. The interior was a single round compartment, 24 | | feet in diameter and 8 feet high, with a small control panel. There | | were eight crewmembers inside, but only one spoke to him. This man | | was five feet tall, stocky and of dark complexion, and elderly | | looking. He wore brown coveralls with no shirt. Speaking in English, | | he told Mr. Jackson that they came from the planet "Planteh." They | | have been preparing "a neighboring planet" for colonization by Earth | | people, and Jackson was asked to help then recruit colonists; perfect | | health was offered to him in return for his assistance. After 90 | | minutes of conversation Jackson left the craft, which took off with | | great speed. Then he found himself in his trailer. He told his | | 16-year old son of the experience.

Both witness | | could only catch a glimpse of the stranger, described as somewhat | | "caveman" in appearance, with dark hair and a beard, pointy ears, and | | "demonic" facial features. The top half of its body was greenish and | | the bottom half was pale white. This strange creature ran by the car | | and disappeared into the woods. (Source: Albert S.
