Bayonne, 21 Sep. -- Some residents of Bayonne claim to have seen this afternoon, very high in the sky, in a northeast direction, three mysterious objects of light tint, cutting on the pure sky at that hour.
A peacekeeper, Mr. Corrions, who was in the Halles district, observed these three immobile craft, arranged in a triangle, of slightly oval shape. They were, he said, the size of a rugby ball and appeared to be at a considerable height.
Passers-by said they saw the same bright objects in other places.
