AUGUST 20, 1974, DERRY, NEW HAMPSHIRE, USA, JOE R.:

Brief summary of the event and follow-up:

Apparently, near Derry, New Hampshire, on August 20, 1974, at 09:30 p.m., "Joe R." was driving on Route 43 when he saw through his windshield an object "big as a house" moving from east to west at approximately 300 meters from him.

It was white in color, fuzzy and bright as the sun, and was followed by several smaller objects. It moved into trees along the highway between Exits 4 and 5; he pulled off the road, got out, and began looking for the object.

Some time later, he suddenly spotted two small "mummy like" figures in the woods 40 meters distant. Alarmed, he got in his car and drove away. The entire incident was of one-hour duration, although the figures were only seen briefly.

[Ref. ar1:] ALBERT ROSALES:

Albert Rosales indicates in his catalogue that near Derry, New Hampshire, on August 20, 1974, at 09:30 p.m., driving on Route 43, Joe R, saw an object through his windshield moving from east to west, approximately 300 yards distant, and "big as a house."

It was white in color, fuzzy and bright as the sun, and was followed by several smaller objects. It moved into trees along the highway between Exits 4 and 5; he pulled off the road, got out, and began looking for the object.

Some time later, he suddenly spotted two small "mummy like" figures in the woods 40 yards distant. Alarmed, he got in his car and drove away. The entire incident was of one-hour duration, although the figures were only seen briefly.

Albert Rosales indicates that the source is John Oswald and Bill Haylock.
