In Re to Item ll: I used the binoculars on the moon and the stars,
that I could see in the sky, and then would go back to the object.
When Lieutenant Williamson set up the astrologer's telescope, he
focused it on the moon and then would
army. I also lined up the object with a telephone and myself
so that we were all a straight line. The object went to the left
of the pole and to the right pole and traveled up and down.
I would point out that this particular night was extremely clear

unlimited.

I realize these are the im-
the experience left me with. T also wished to
explain to you the basis (lacking else of
my observations.
