00302 hours, 11 July 1947.
Approximately 6,000 feet.
Clear; at dusk.
From northwest heading eastward,
Very high velocity.
Dise shaped; was reported as being the size of a
barrel-head, dinner-plate and size of a plane
that is flying high. The trail gave the whole
object the appearance of a cone.
Flame colored with a trail of a lighter flame color.
Mr. John Legge, Mr. Wm. Evans and Albert Samms of
Codroy, NewfoundJand.
Mr. Legge and Mr. Evans were standing outside Mr. Legge's
store when they both sighted the object. Both men stated
that the disc was very bright with an after-rlow which
made the object look like a cone. It was a very clear
night. In spite of the high velocity of the flying
object, they said thev could not possibly heve mistaken
it for a plane or a falling star. Besides the two men,
the object was sighted by Albert Samms; he reported what
he had seen to his mother. Mrs. Samms stated that Albert
was in no way alarmed about it, he was alone and on his
way home when he sighted it, and watched it while it was
in sight. Albert was quite convinced from the color and
behaviour of the object that it was not a plane, but
definately some flying object.
The informant, Mr. Legge, is believed to be reliable.
He is a man of approximately forty; has had considerable
experience as foreman of Buchans Mine, Newfoundland, where
he was in charge of three hundred men. During the war,
Mr. Legge was a mamber of a civilian volunteer Air
Detection Corps. With that » cCkground, Wr. Legge stated
that. he felt sure that the object he had seen was some—
thing new which he had never seen before.
