In our issue yesterday, we announced that two residents of Cisternes-la-Forêt (Puy-de-Dome) had sighted a mysterious machine that had landed in a field.
Information obtained, we would like to point out that the craft was not seen Sunday night, but Saturday night around 9:30 p.m., by one of the two witnesses we quoted yesterday; and this craft was flying along an east-west trajectory approximately.
We recall that Saturday around this time, people from Saint-Georges-de-Mons, Les Ancizes, Montlucon and Vichy observed the same phenomenon.
Mr. Chazotte, a retired mine worker from Cisternes-la-Foret, put in place by our article yesterday, asks us to insert the following letter:
"Following the article in your journal, which I am an avid reader, I want to re-establish the facts.
"Saturday evening, October 16th, goint out of my home at 9:30 p.m., I saw a luminous roundness of the size of a plate, leaving a reddish trail of about three meters, ending in a cone. This gleam crossed the town of Cisternes, from east to west, and it was moving at great speed, and I never saw a craft posed on the ground."
One less saucer...!
