Dear Sirs:

On the second Monday in the month of
November, 1961, I saw a "object" gliding silently
through the sky. I had a camera in my hands
at the time. I then took three photos of the "UFO".
They all took in the light of this object. I am sending
the photo and negative that might help you determine
if it was a flying saucer. If you want to see the
other negatives write back to me and I will send
them to you,

Yours very truly,
(Ss

P.S. Iam holding the

best negative in case you
do not answer back.
