drew a reference line on the window

approximately loo miles away which are normally not visible. A check with approximately l00 miles away which are normally not visible. A check with
the highway department revealed that a new road had recently been opened
across the mountains. Subsequent viewings revealed the lights in the same across the mountains. Subsequent viewings i revealed the lights in the same
location as the new road and the reference line on the window. Therefore
I am reasonably certain that the lights were vehicle head and tail lights.
2. I regret the delay in answering your letter. This was due to my de- letter. This was due to my de-
parting from an extended 1 eave shortly after shortly after the sighting. sighting.
