Jyear Sir:

T have written you two times vwreviously for infor tion on U.F.0.'S.
Sut until Septembor 16,f never exoected to see one.

At &€:30 Pes. we were in tie back yard star gazing when we heard a sound
like an airplane,hoving to see it in my telescone we scanned the sky,we 1eard
it get louder and then get fainter once more we scanned the sky this tiie we
saw 41 stationary,blinking,red object abcut 35° above the tiorizon in the tele-
scone it acoeared to oe a wiite and round. Je had watctcned it for abont 5
minutes s:en it “isacpeared.About 15 seconds later it ream eared ao wut 10
lower in tre sicy.it vefan to. move N.v. tien vanished.

Ve ineadistly decided it was not an air:lane decaise it was stationary
and -oved 1% eerrees in 15 seconis.You nay think this is a hoax but I -onti
care wat vou tain’ scecause it's true.Would vou ~clease analize it even thourn
YOR “97 trink it i¢ a hcax and sen~ me the result.

Cordially yours,
