The whole article:
“Howard Ellis has reported seeing an egg-shaped,
translucent bubble hovering about 30 feet over a power line near the I. R. E. A. building
about 6:00 o’clock Tuesday evening, January 2, 1968. He summoned several other
parties who also saw the object. He shone his flashlight up toward it and
immediately lights came on either in or on it.
It then proceeded on across the way to a little above
the courthouse, then after a short time it went on to hover over Naylor’s
Market, where, according to some witnesses, it emitted a series of flames and
shot straight up, out of sight.”
