a rough idea of height & speed
of this craft have would say
without hesitation that when I
first sighted this object it must
have been travelling beyond the
speed of sound & accelerated to
about 3 or 4 times that speed
disappearing.
I am now of conclusion no
sharks or train was left.
Visibility was excellent this
night then being absolutely no
mist, cloud or fog.
of Observed lights object of unknown
shape & size approaching from the
East, which, as it came in a
direct line in front of, & about
000 ft. above me, suddenly accelerated
to a terrific speed, (equal to that
of a falling star), except that
it gained height gradually. At
the point of acceleration, an
orange flame shot out from behind
& continued until the object attained
a certain speed, & then went
out, leaving the object without
heat, been out of the line of
vision.
There was no noise whatsoever
obs if was dark I have only
of it.
P.S. As far as I could tell
there were three lights on this
object when first sighted, one at the
rear & two others around & in front
of it.
