Dear Sirs:

I am writing in regards to the Flying Saucer which may have landed in a wheat field in Carroll County.

At approximately 8:40 A.M., on July 4th, I saw a saucer. I was in the back yard with a cup of coffee. The sky was bright blue, and the U.F.O. was plainly visible, as it wasn't flying at a high altitude, but was flying fairly fast.

I told my neighbors about 10 minutes later that I saw it. I also told 4 other people the same day.

Two days ago I read in the paper about the spot in Joe Stivano's wheat.

Sincerely,
Mrs.
